2017–2018 Arcimoto FUV recall: lights

⚠️ What's wrong

Arcimoto, Inc (Arcimoto) is recalling certain 2017-2018 FUV motorcycles. The combination brake light, tail light, and turn signal assembly does not have a reflex reflector in the side-facing surfaces. As such these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 108, "Lamps, reflective devices, and Associated Equipment."

💥 The risk

Without rear side reflex reflectors, the vehicle may have less visibility from the side, increasing the risk of a crash.

🔧 The fix

Arcimoto has notified all affected owners and the motorcycles are within the manufacturer's control. Arcimoto will add a reflex reflector to each side of the vehicle, free of charge. Owners may contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6293. Arcimoto's number for this recall is 7F7-H6Y7W-12.

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.)
