NHTSA recall 20V277000
Engine And Engine Cooling · Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA
Details
What's wrong: The cylinder head nuts may not have been tightened properly and could loosen, allowing coolant to foul the spark plug.
Why it matters: A fouled spark plug could cause the engine to stall at idle and possibly not restart, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Yamaha will notify owners and dealers will replace the cylinder head gasket and tighten the cylinder head nuts, free of charge. The recall began May 29, 2020.
