Arcimoto Inc "Arcimoto" is recalling certain 2017-2018 FUV motorcycles. The front turn signal lights are not positioned at, or near, the front of the motorcycle as required. As such, these vehicles fail to comply to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard "FMVSS" number 108, "Lamps, Reflective devices, and Associated Equipment."
The incorrectly positioned front turn signals can reduce their visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.
Arcimoto has notified all affected owners and the motorcycles are within the manufacturer's control. Arcimoto will add identical signal lights to a location in front of the existing ones, free of charge. Owners may contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6293. Arcimoto's number for this recall is 7F7-P5R6U-12.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
