Recall History (7 recalls)

80V009000Mar 1980

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:CALIPER

THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER CASTING ON CERTAIN VEHICLES COULD BE POROUS AND COULD ALLOW BRAKE FLUID TO SEEP FROM THE CALIPER ASSEMBLY. IF THIS OCCURS, THE REAR BRAKES WILL GRADUALLY LOSE FLUID AND PRESSURE.

80V020000Mar 1980

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT

ON CERTAIN MOTORCYCLES, THE HEAD OF THE REAR WHEEL SPROCKET MOUNTING BOLT COULD BREAK OFF AND EVENTUALLY WEDGE ITSELF BETWEEN THE ALUMINUM CHAIN HOUSING AND THE SPROCKET. THIS DEFECT IS DUE TO A MANUFACTURING PROCESS WHICH MAY CAUSE THE BOLTS TO BECOME BRITTLE.

80V037000Apr 1980

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH

THERE IS A POTENTIAL MALFUNCTION WITHIN THE FORK LOCK PIN RETURN MECHANISM WHICH MIGHT ALLOW THE FORK PIN TO DROP AND INADVERTENTLY ENGAGE THE FORK LOCK DURING LEFT HAND TURNS AT LOW SPEEDS.

STEERING:COLUMN LOCKING:ANTI-THEFT DEVICE

THE ADJUSTING SCREW, WHICH MOUNTS THROUGH A FORK LOCK LEVER ASSEMBLY INTO THE FORK LOCK ITSELF, MAY NOT BE FULLY AND SECURELY ENGAGED BECAUSE THE SCREW MAY NOT BE LONG ENOUGH. THIS MAY ALLOW THE FORK PIN TO DROP AND ACCIDENTALLY ENGAGE THE FORK LOCK.

ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, THE REAR BRAKE CONTROL MAY DISENGAGE FROM THE FRAME DUE TO STRESSES PRIMARILY CAUSED BY THE LENGTH OF THE BRAKE CONTROL MOUNTING BOLTS.
