What is wrong
Arcimoto Inc (Arcimoto) is recalling certain 2019 FUV motorcycles. The ignition switch is missing the word "Ignition" and the "Off" position is not labeled with the word "Off." As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 123, "Motorcycle Controls and Displays."
What can happen
The missing word labels could lead to operator error, increasing the risk of injury or crash.
The remedy
Arcimoto will notify owners, and dealers will replace the key switch trim ring with a laser-etched key switch that contains an "Ignition" and "Off" label, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Arcimoto customer service at 1-541-683-6923.
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.

|---|---|
| SB-20-002 | 2020-07-02. Service bulletin. Dual electric motors may experience reduced reliability or life-span, due to allowing fluid ingress without egress. The issue will be addressed with gasketing to prevent fluid ingress, and installation of at least one drain-hole to ensure fluid egress. Based on field reports, the issue of fluid ingress without egress has occurred when the vehicle is stationary and not being operated on a public road/ highway. Therefore, at this time there is no data to suggest a regulatory or safety issue that would require a recall. |
| SB-20-001 | 2020-07-02. Service bulletin. On-board charger for traction-power battery may experience reduced reliability or life-span. When the charger is being operated, then the vehicle necessarily is stationary and not being operated on a public road/ highway. Therefore, at this time there is no data to suggest a regulatory or safety issue that would require a recall. |
