Owner report 10324756 · 2010-04-09 (April 9, 2010)
I AM AWARE OF A PROBLEM WITH FUEL PUMP FAILURE AND CONSEQUENT ENGINE STALLING IN YAMAHA MOTORCYCLE MODEL WR250R AND WR250X, MODEL YEAR 2008. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ADDRESSED BY A RECALL IN JAPAN ON THIS MODEL (AS WELL AS OTHER MODELS USING THIS PUMP ASSEMBLY). AT THIS TIME, I SEE NO COMPLAINTS LISTED ON YOUR WEBSITE. AS THIS CONSTITUTES A SAFETY ISSUE, I THINK THAT A RECALL IN THE USA SHOULD BE REQUIRED. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED ON AT LEAST 3 POPULAR ENTHUSIAST WEB SITES. IF YOU CAN PROVIDE A SPECIFIC E-MAIL ADDRESS FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE…

IN WARM WEATHER, FUEL PUMP FAILS AFTER GETTING HOT. TODAY, AFTER A 20 MINUTE RIDE AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS, I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION. THE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE WAS AROUND 75 DEGREES.

HAD THIS PROBLEM LAST SUMMER BUT NEVER FIGURED OUT WHAT THE ISSUE WAS. ALWAYS JUST HAD TO LET IT SIT FOR SEVERAL HOURS BEFORE IT WOULD START …

HELLO; I CONTACTED THE YAMAHA CORPORATION ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AT THEIR CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS IN CYPRESS, CALIFORNIA. TWICE, I TRIED TO GET THE PROBLEM TAKEN CARE OF. FIRST CONTACT WAS [XXX], THEN [XXX], 04-10-2015. 10:55 AM, THE ATTITUDE OF THE REPRESENTATIVES WAS INCREDIBLE, EVEN TO THE POINT OF MOCKING ME ABOUT THE SAFETY ISSUE. WHEN I ASKED TO SPEAK TO A MANAGER, THEY SAID THERE WASN'T ONE, AND THAT I AM WHO YOU SPEAK TO . THE FINAL RESPONSE OF BOTH WAS THAT THERE IS NO RECALL AND I WAS TO PAY FOR IT MYSELF. THIS PATTERN OF…
