What's wrong

ON CERTAIN MOTOR SCOOTERS, THE HEAD OF THE ENGINE ATTACHMENT BOLT (P/N 597080) MAY BREAK.

The risk

IF THE BOLT WERE TO BREAK, THE ENGINE COULD BECOME LOOSE AND DETACH ITSELF FROM THE VEHICLE FRAME, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

The fix

THE ENGINE ATTACHMENT BOLTS (VD 10.9) WILL BE REPLACED. ALL VEHICLES ARE STILL IN TRANSIT TO THE UNITED STATES. NONE OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE BEEN DISTRIBUTED TO DEALERS OR SOLD TO CUSTOMERS.
