Description
Kymco (kymco usa) is recalling certain model year 2015 super 8-50 x and 2015 super 8-150 x road scooters manufactured february 6, 2015, to september 15, 2015. In the affected models, the front hydraulic brake hose may be improperly routed, and as a result, the brake hose may contact the front tire when the front suspension is compressed.
Consequence
If the hydraulic brake hose contacts the tire, the hose may rupture, resulting in a loss of front brakes and increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective Action
Kymco will notify owners, and dealers will replace the two brake hose securing brackets, free of charge. . Owners may contact kymco customer service at 1-888-235-3417.
