Recall 2018208

The issue

On certain motorcycles, the fuel cap may not vent properly and fuel tank pressure could be increased. This could result in fuel to spray out of the tank while opening the fuel tank cap, which in the presence of an ignition source, could increase the risk of fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will rework the currently installed fuel tank cap and improve the breathing capacity.

Description (français)

Le bouchon du réservoir de carburant de certaines motocyclettes pourrait ne pas assurer une bonne aération, ce qui pourrait faire augmenter la pression du réservoir et faire déborder du carburant lorsqu'on dévisse le bouchon. Dans une telle situation, et en présence d'une source d'inflammation, les risques de feu causant des blessures et/ou des dommages matériels augmenteraient. Mesure corrective : Les concessionnaires doivent retravailler le bouchon du réservoir de carburant actuel et améliorer sa capacité d'aération.
