Failure to repair within sixty (60) days after tender of a vehicle is prima facie evidence of failure to repair within a reasonable time. If the condition is not adequately repaired within a reasonable time, the owner may be entitled to an identical or reasonable equivalent vehicle at no charge or to a refund of the purchase price less a reasonable allowance for depreciation. To avoid having to provide these burdensome solutions, every effort must be made to promptly schedule an appointment with each owner and to repair their vehicle as soon as possible. Defect Involved Irbit Motorworks has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2012 to 2017 model Urals. The known assembly defect is specific to aluminum rims used in production between 9/15/2011 and 10/3/2017. The cause of this defect is improper assembly, specifically over-torque of the wheel spokes that can potentially cause the wheel rim to crack. Possible consequence of this defect can include broken and/or split rims and possible failure resulting in wheel lock up or damage that could potentially lead to vehicle crash. All Ural sidecar motorcycles manufactured between 9/15/2011 and 10/3/2017 will be recalled for the replacement of aluminum rims by the servicing dealer using new inventory provided by Irbit Motorworks. This excludes wheel rims previously replaced by warranty and/or under NHTSA Recall No. 13V-507.
