The issue
On certain motorcycles, the contacts in the rear stop lamp switch may have poor connectivity due to an issue during manufacturing. This could prevent the stop lamp from illuminating when only the rear brake is applied, which could result in following road users being unaware of the intent of the operator to slow the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the stop lamp switch assembly.
Description (français)
Dans certaines motocyclettes, les contacts d’interrupteur de feux de freinage pourraient présenter une mauvaise connexion en raison d’un problème de fabrication, ce qui pourrait en prévenir l’allumage lorsqu’un frein est employé, empêcher des usagers de la route de connaître l’intention des motocyclistes de ralentir et accroître les risques d’accidents pouvant causer des blessures et/ou des dommages matériels. Mesure corrective : les détaillants doivent remplacer l’ensemble d’interrupteur de feu de freinage.
