10V365000 · Exterior Lighting

Reported: 2010-08-05 (August 5, 2010) · Model years: 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010

YAMAHA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006 THROUGH 2010 YZF-R6 MOTORCYCLES MANUFACTURED FROM AUGUST 2005 THROUGH MARCH 2010. THE MOTORCYCLE'S FRONT SIDE REFLECTOR WAS NOT PLACED AT THE PROPER HEIGHT WHICH FAILS TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT."

Consequence: VISIBILITY OF THE MOTORCYCLE WILL BE DECREASED, POSSIBLY INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Remedy: YAMAHA WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND DEALERS WILL REPAIR THE MOTORCYCLES FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON AUGUST 12, 2010. OWNERS MAY CONTACT YAMAHA AT 1-800-962-7926.

15V176000 · Power Train:Manual Transmission

Reported: 2015-03-25 (March 25, 2015) · Model years: 2015

Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA (Yamaha) is recalling certain model year 2015 FJ-09 (FJ09F/FC), FZ-09 (FZ09F/FC), FZ6R (FZ6RF/FC), Super Tenere (XTZ12F/FC), Super Tenere ES (XTZ12EF/EFC), and R6 (YZF-R6) motorcycles manufactured September 1, 2014, to November 17, 2014. The affected motorcycles may have an incorrectly manufactured shift cam segment stopper, having a sharp edge on the inside of the bend instead of a smooth radius. As a result, the stopper can crack and possibly fracture at this sharp edge.

Consequence: If the stopper fractures, the transmission may not shift properly, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will replace the shift shaft assembly with a new one, free of charge. The recall began on April 6, 2015. Owners may contact Yamaha customer service at 1-800-962-7926.

Emerging complaint spikes

Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.

This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.

No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
