Loss of fuel pressure and engine stalling will increase the risk of a crash.  A fuel leak can also result in a fire.

Dealers will replace the length of fuel hose connecting the fuel pump to the fuel filter free of charge.  The recall began on july 3, 2009.  Owners may contact piaggio at 1-212-380-4400.
