Do you own one of these potentially dangerous CFMoto motorcycles? This looks like the
same recall that happened over a year ago (closer to two years now) but which
suddenly disappeared from the federal government's recall database in less than a month or so - apparently after CFMoto tried to get the federal safety investigators to change their mind about the recall and cancel it. Well, it's back.

Summary:
CFMOTO IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2005 THROUGH 2009 CF250T V3, AND CF205T V5 AUTOMATIC MOTORCYCLES MANUFACTURED FROM JANUARY 1, 2005, THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2009. THESE MODELS WERE BUILT WITH A LEFT HAND REAR WHEEL BRAKE INSTEAD OF THE REQUIRED RIGHT FOOT OPERATED REAR WHEEL BRAKE. THEREFORE, THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NUMBER 123, "MOTORCYCLE CONTROLS AND DISPLAYS." |
Consequence:
THE ABSENCE OF STANDARDIZED MOTORCYCLE CONTROLS MAY HINDER THE OPERATORS ABILITY TO EFFECTIVELY BRAKE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH. |
Remedy:
CFMOTO WILL NOTIFY OWNERS, AND DEALERS WILL INSTALL A RIGHT FOOT CONTROL REAR WHEEL BRAKE KIT |
If you own one of these potentially dangerous CFMoto motorcycles, and your dealer isn't helping you (if they are still in business), and the factory isn't helping either, then call us on our Toll Free Lmeon CFMoto Hotline at 1.888.331.6422 for free lemon law help, or email us right now. Getting rid of lemon CFMoto bikes and getting your money back is what we do. Making them pay for our attorney fee bill? Well, that's only fair - after all, you didn't build it that way so why should you have to pay to make them take care of you?
