2013 Brammo Empulse recall: body & structure
⚠️ What's wrong
Brammo, Inc. (Brammo) is recalling certain model year 2013 Empulse motorcycles manufactured November 19, 2012, through June 18, 2013. The rear tail assembly bracket can fatigue and may allow the rear tail assembly to break off while riding.
💥 The risk
If the rear tail assembly breaks off, it could contact the rear wheel, increasing the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Brammo will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear tail section assembly with a new version not susceptible to failure, free of charge. The recall began on July 25, 2013. Owners may contact Brammo at 1-541-482-9555.
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.)
