2019 Arcimoto FUV recall: steering
⚠️ What's wrong
Arcimoto, Inc. (Arcimoto) is recalling certain Arcimoto FUV motorcycles. There may be insufficient thread engagement between the inner and outer tie rods, possibly resulting in the separation of the tie rod assembly.
💥 The risk
A tie rod separation can cause a loss of steering and increase the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Arcimoto is still finalizing a remedy to better secure the tie rods, free of charge. Owners may contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6293.
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.)
