Arcimoto recall: Steering
What is wrong
Arcimoto, Inc. (Arcimoto) is recalling certain Arcimoto FUV motorcycles. There may be insufficient thread engagement between the inner and outer tie rods, possibly resulting in the separation of the tie rod assembly.
What could happen
A tie rod separation can cause a loss of steering and increase the risk of a crash.
The fix
Arcimoto is still finalizing a remedy to better secure the tie rods, free of charge. Owners may contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6293.
