India Yamaha Motor plans to replace handlebar in 56,082 Ray scooters which is affected due to inadequate welding. The company is to start the recall through the ‘Ray Refresh Campaign’ which will be run through the company’s dealership networks. Customers also will be contacted to replace the affected part in ‘Ray’ scooters via this ‘Ray Refresh Campaign’. The company told that this replacement will be free of cost
India Yamaha said in a statement, “The Company has taken this voluntary step after it detected insufficient strength in the handlebar of some scooters due to inadequate welding. The recall campaign on 56,082 units of Ray would cover the handlebar fitted in the scooters that may in the worst case scenario have an impact on the steering operation”
It also added, “The campaign is subject to ‘Ray’ scooters only. All Ray Z scooters are completely unaffected by this potential problem”.
