The issue
On certain motorcycles, incorrect front brake caliper mounting bolts may have been installed during vehicle assembly. Should the bolts break, the caliper could interfere with the rotation of the front wheel, causing the wheel to lockup suddenly. This could result in a loss of vehicle control and a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the front brake caliper mounting bolts.
Description (français)
Sur certaines motocyclettes, des boulons de fixation incorrects de l'étrier du frein avant pourraient avoir été posés pendant le montage du véhicule. Si les boulons se brisaient, l'étrier pourrait nuire à la rotation de la roue avant, ce qui causerait le blocage de la roue. Cela pourrait causer une perte de contrôle du véhicule et un accident endommageant des biens matériels ou blessant quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les boulons de fixation de l'étrier du frein avant.
