2015~2020-MODEL YZF-R3 AND 2020-MODEL MT-03 MOTORCYCLES, AND 2018~2020-MODEL XMAX SCOOTERS
FACTORY MODIFICATION CAMPAIGN – Rear Reflector Assembly
INTRODUCTION
Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A. has decided that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety exists in 2015~2020-model YZF-R3 and 2020-model MT-03 motorcycles, and 2018~2020-model XMAX (CZD300) scooters.
In affected motorcycles and scooters, the rear reflector assembly may not comply with motor vehicle safety standards related to reflection luminosity. This is due to condensation or other contaminants adhering to the lens mold that compromised the reflective properties of the lens, increasing the risk of a crash.
To correct this defect, Yamaha is initiating a Factory Modification Campaign. Affected units must have the rear reflector assembly replaced with the proper parts that address the reflection issue.
Yamaha is notifying all registered owners of affected motorcycles and scooters by mail. A copy of this letter is included in this bulletin. The customer should take this letter along with the affected scooter or motorcycle to an authorized Yamaha dealer for modification.
If your dealership was invoiced for one or more affected units, a computer report listing all affected motorcycles and scooters invoiced to your dealership is included with a mailed copy of this bulletin. Use the list to help ensure all motorcycles and scooters are modified. All sold motorcycles and scooters that have been registered with Yamaha will show the customer’s name and address.
Your dealership must notify the owner of any affected motorcycle or scooter that was actually sold but listed as “unsold” in the report. You must modify all affected motorcycles and scooters in your inventory as well as all customer-owned motorcycles and scooters brought to you for this service. Any affected motorcycle or scooter that you purchase from Yamaha in the future may also require modification. If you purchase a motorcycle or scooter from another dealer or Yamaha, check to see if the procedures in this bulletin have already been performed before you sell the motorcycle or scooter.
Motorcycles and scooters that are affected should not be sold until they modified. It is a violation of Yamaha policy for your dealership to deliver any affected motorcycle or scooter to customers until the procedures in this bulletin are performed.
When the modification on each motorcycle or scooter is performed, follow the Warranty Information section of this bulletin to receive reimbursement. Be sure to use the Factory Modification Campaign procedures in Chapter 7 of the Warranty and Y.E.S. Handbook (LIT-11760-00-16).
