Exterior Lighting › Brake Lights › Switch — Zero · reported 13 Nov 2020 · 659 vehicles potentially affected

What's wrong

Zero Motorcycles Inc. (Zero) is recalling certain 2020 SR/F and SR/S motorcycles. The front brake switch can fail from water getting into the switch.

The risk

An inoperable front brake switch will not illuminate the brake light when the rider applies the front brakes. Following vehicles may not realize the motorcycle is braking. Cruise control will not shut off with the application of the front brakes. Both conditions increase the risk of a crash.

The fix

Zero will notify owners, and dealers will the replace the front brake switch, free of charge. The recall began November 30, 2020. Owners may contact Zero customer service at 1-888-841-8085. Zero's number for this recall is SV-ZMC-021-020.

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
