Defect. Yamaha is recalling certain model year 2011 XC50A (Vino Classic) motorcycles manufactured from April 2011 through August 2011. Due to improper adhesion, the brake shoe linings may separate from the front and rear brake shoes.

Risk. If the brake shoe linings separate, the brake performance could be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy. Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front and rear brake shoes, free of charge. The recall began on October 4, 2013. Owners may contact Yamaha at 1-800-962-7926.

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.
