Equipment › Other › Labels — Monto · reported 5 Jan 2001 · 777 vehicles potentially affected
What's wrong
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CERTAIN MOPEDS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH DOT CERTIFICATIONS. AN INCORRECT VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN) WAS STAMPED INTO THE STEEL BOSS ON THE FRAME AT JUNCTION OF THE FRAME TO THE STEERING YOLK TUBE; A MANUFACTURER IDENTIFICATION LABEL IS MISSING; AND THE CONSUMER INFORMATION ADDENDUM TO THE OWNER'S MANUAL IS MISSING.
The risk
THESE ERRORS WILL AFFECT THE REGISTRATION OF THE VEHICLE.
The fix
DEALERS WILL INSTALL REPLACEMENT VIN IDENTIFICATIONS AND A MANUFACTURER ID LABEL WILL BE ATTACHED TO THE STEERING YOLK TUBE. OWNER NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2001. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT J&J AT 1-623-931-4060.
ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).
Vehicles covered by this recall
Whether a particular car is affected and still unrepaired depends on its VIN — a model year being listed does not mean every car of that year is included. Check any VIN free on CarLogs, or at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
Is this car's recall fixed?
Recall repairs are free at any franchised dealer, for the life of the vehicle. A CarLogs report shows the recall status for a specific VIN as reported by the manufacturer — whether it's open or repaired, and whether the fix is available yet.
