Chronology :

On August 22, 2022, BMWeBay logo became aware of an incident in Germany involving a 2022 BMWeBay logo CE 04. It was reported that the steering may have become blocked, and that the rider was not able to control the motorcycle which resulted in a crash. An immediate analysis was initiated.

The analysis indicated that the steering had become blocked as a result of a horn which had become partially detached from the motorcycle. The analysis also indicated that the mounting hardware for the horn on the subject motorcycle may not have been appropriate. Further evaluations of engineering drawings and specifications determined that the mounting hardware for similarly produced models may not have been appropriate.

On September 1, 2022, BMWeBay logo decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall.

BMWeBay logo has not received any reports, nor is BMWeBay logo otherwise aware, of any further accidents or injuries associated with this issue.
