Recall 2008049

The issue

On certain motorcycles equipped with the optional accessory luggage rack system, the slide carriage (part of the rear rack assembly) may not offer the required amount of lateral movement, resulting in reduced stability under certain conditions. Loss of vehicle control would increase the risk of a crash, resulting in personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect the rack system for lateral movement. Those racks not displaying any movement will be repaired.

Description (français)

Sur certaines motocyclettes munies du support à bagages optionnel, le support à bagages arrière pourrait ne pas permettre le déplacement latéral nécessaire, ce qui diminuerait la stabilité dans certaines conditions. Une perte de contrôle du véhicule augmenterait les risques d'accident, ce qui pourrait blesser quelqu'un ou entraîner des pertes de vie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront vérifier le déplacement latéral du support à bagages. Les supports qui ne permettent aucun déplacement devront être réparés.
