Defect. JONWAY IS RECALLING 180 MY 2008 SUNNY SCOOTERS. SOME OF THESE SCOOTERS MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITHOUT A RETAINER CLIP DESIGNED TO PREVENT THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE LINE FROM COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THE FRONT TIRE. IN THE SCOOTERS WHERE THE RETAINER CLIP WAS NOT INSTALLED, THE BRAKE LINE MAY RUB AGAINST THE FRONT TIRE AND DAMAGE THE LINE.

Risk. IF THE LINE IS RUBBED THROUGH, THE FRONT BRAKE MAY NOT OPERATE PROPERLY WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.

Remedy. OWNERS WILL BE NOTIFIED TO TAKE THEIR SCOOTERS TO DEALERS, AND DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FRONT BRAKE LINE AND ITS ROUTING. A RETAINER CLIP WILL BE INSTALLED ON ANY SCOOTERS WITHOUT THOSE CLIPS, AND ANY DAMAGED BRAKE LINES WILL BE REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON APRIL 15, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT JONWAY AT 972-408-6804.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
