What's wrong

Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. (KMC) is recalling certain 2020-2021 LX230A and 2022 LX230G motorcycles. The incorrect front brake rotor may have been installed, which can reduce brake performance. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 122, "Motorcycle Brake Systems."

The risk

Reduced brake performance can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix

Dealers will replace the front brake rotor and pads, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 23, 2022. Owners may contact KMC customer service at 1-866-802-9381. KMC's number for this recall is MC22-04.

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.nhtsa.gov.
