Motorcycle Recall - Morgan 3 Wheeler Motorcycles Recall

NHTSA Campaign ID:  13V313000
Component:  Equipment, Service Brakes, Hydraulic
Manufacturer:  Morgan 3 Wheeler Limited
Recall Date: 07/16/2013
Potential Number of Units Affected: 139
Defect Summary:
Morgan 3 Wheeler Limited (Morgan) is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 three-wheeled motorcycles manufactured between October 2012 and July 2013. The brake fluid reservoir does not have a brake fluid reservoir filling warning statement. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirement of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 122, "Motorcycle Brake Systems."
Consequence Summary:
The operator may not be warned of the brake fluid reservoir filling requirements, which may result in a reduction of brake performance, increasing the risk of a crash.
Corrective Summary:
Morgan will notify owners and dealers will apply a brake fluid reservoir filling warning label, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Morgan's US Agent at 1-505-570-1845.
