Defect. Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA (Yamaha) is recalling certain 2022 Tenere 700 (XTZ7N) motorcycles. The front brake calipers may have been assembled with bolts that have an incorrect thread length, which can damage the mounting hole threads in the brake caliper.

Risk. Damaged brake calipers can detach and cause a loss of braking ability, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Owners should not operate their motorcycle, other than take it to a dealer, until the remedy is performed. Dealers will inspect the length of the front brake caliper bolts and replace them, if necessary. If the caliper mounting-hole threads are damaged, the caliper will be replaced. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed July 20, 2023. Owners may contact Yamaha's customer service at 1-800-962-7926. Yamaha's number for this recall is 990168.

Fuel gauge broken, all bars flashing. Not being able to track fuel level would leave people stranded at the side of the road

Fuel/Propulsion System
Filed Feb 17, 2023NM

With the brand new motorcycle stored in the garage, the garage is full of fuel fumes coming from fuel evaporating from the fuel cap. Also, if the motorcycle drops to one side and the fuel tank is full, the fuel starts pouring out from the fuel cap. This can cause a fire or soak in fuel the equipment attached to the motorcycle. This is a hazard. Yamaha must redesign the leaky fuel cap seal and issue a recall.

Reading this record

NHTSA has issued a do-not-drive warning for a recall on this vehicle.

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.
