2008 Jonway Sunny recall: brakes
⚠️ What's wrong
Jonway is recalling 180 my 2008 Sunny scooters. Some of these scooters may have been manufactured without a retainer clip designed to prevent the hydraulic brake line from coming into contact with the front tire. In the scooters where the retainer clip was not installed, the brake line may rub against the front tire and damage the line.
💥 The risk
If the line is rubbed through, the front brake may not operate properly which could result in a crash.
🔧 The fix
Owners will be notified to take their scooters to dealers, and dealers will inspect the front brake line and its routing. A retainer clip will be installed on any scooters without those clips, and any damaged brake lines will be replaced free of charge. The recall began on april 15, 2009. Owners may contact jonway at 972-408-6804.
