2007 UM V2C-650 & 2007 UM V2S-650 recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
United motors is recalling 1,145 V2C-650 and V2S-650 series motorcycles. These motorcycles were built with fuel tank cap gaskets that prevent proper tank ventilation.
💥 The risk
This could result in vehicle stalling which could result in a crash and/or fuel leakage which could result in a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will modify the existing gas cap gasket. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this campaign. Owners may contact united motors at 1-800-886-8599.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
