Details

What's wrong: The front brake switch can fail due to increased resistance from silicon oxide.

Why it matters: Failure of the front brake switch can cause the brake light to stay on constantly and/or the cruise control system to shutoff unexpectedly. Both situations increases the risk of a crash.

The fix: Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front brake switch, free of charge. The recall began January 20, 2021.
