4 recalls across 5 model years
The Yamaha MTT9GT has 4 recalls covering 2018 through 2022 model years, with the most serious affecting 2021-2022 motorcycles where ECU software can limit throttle response, cause an unexpected engine stall, or suppress the engine warning light when a fault is present, raising the risk of a crash.
On 2021 models specifically, the throttle grip can crack and break if the motorcycle is lifted from a fallen position by that grip, which can restrict or eliminate throttle control while riding. The 2018-2020 model years have a front brake switch that can develop internal resistance and either hold the brake light on continuously or cut out the cruise control without warning, both of which can confuse other riders and drivers or catch the rider off guard. A separate label issue on certain 2021 motorcycles involves a Federal Certification label printed with a VIN that does not match the one stamped on the frame, which can prevent an owner from identifying whether their specific motorcycle is covered by a safety recall.
