Arcimoto recall: Equipment
What is wrong
Arcimoto Inc (Arcimoto) is recalling certain 2019 FUV motorcycles. The ignition switch is missing the word "Ignition" and the "Off" position is not labeled with the word "Off." As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 123, "Motorcycle Controls and Displays."
What could happen
The missing word labels could lead to operator error, increasing the risk of injury or crash.
The fix
Arcimoto will notify owners, and dealers will replace the key switch trim ring with a laser-etched key switch that contains an "Ignition" and "Off" label, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6923.
