2009 YAMAHA VMAX (VMX17) Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2009 Yamaha VMAX has two recalls, the more serious being an oil pump that can fail under abnormally high oil pressure, starving the engine of lubrication and causing it to stall. The second recall involves a poorly crimped ground wire connection shared by the throttle and accelerator position sensors. Excessive electrical resistance in that connection can send incorrect signals to the engine management system, potentially causing erratic throttle behavior.
