- Summary
- Arcimoto Inc (Arcimoto) is recalling certain 2017 FUV motorcycles. The affected motorcycles were built with a front/rear split brake system instead of a left/right split brake system. In the event of a front brake system failure, the rear brake system may not allow the vehicle to meet the minimum stopping distance requirements. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 122, "Motorcycle brake systems."
- Consequence
- If the brakes cannot stop the motorcycle within the distance required, there is an increased risk of a crash.
- Remedy
- Arcimoto has contacted the owners and will replace the existing brake lines with new brake lines that have an updated design, free of charge. Owners may contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6293. Arcimoto's number for this recall is 7F7-P2S8D-12.
- Notes
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Has your Arcimoto been repaired?
Recalls here come from NHTSA’s records for the model and year. Not every vehicle of a model is included in every recall, and this site can’t see whether a repair has been done. Only a VIN lookup can tell you that.
NHTSA’s VIN search doesn’t show recalls that were already repaired, recalls more than 15 years old, or some small manufacturers’ recalls. A Arcimoto dealer can also check your VIN. Recall repairs are free.
