CarRecallWatch- Component
- EXTERIOR LIGHTING
- Problem
- Arcimoto, Inc (Arcimoto) is recalling certain 2017-2018 FUV motorcycles. The combination brake light, tail light, and turn signal assembly does not have a reflex reflector in the side-facing surfaces. As such these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, reflective devices, and Associated Equipment."
- Risk
- Without rear side reflex reflectors, the vehicle may have less visibility from the side, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Arcimoto has notified all affected owners and the motorcycles are within the manufacturer's control. Arcimoto will add a reflex reflector to each side of the vehicle, free of charge. Owners may contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6293. Arcimoto's number for this recall is 7F7-H6Y7W-12.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
What this recall means for you
The combined brake light, tail light, and turn signal assembly on these vehicles does not include a reflex reflector on the side-facing surfaces. This means the rear lighting does not meet federal lighting requirements, and the vehicle may be less visible from the side, which can increase the risk of a crash.
The manufacturer will add a reflex reflector to each side of the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The vehicles are within the manufacturer's control, and owners have been notified. To arrange the repair, contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6293.
You can also check your vehicle identification number (VIN) for any open recalls to confirm whether your vehicle is affected.
