2 recalls across 3 model years
The Yamaha VMX17 has 2 recalls covering 2009-2011 model years, the most serious being an oil pump defect on all 2009-2011 models where pressure builds inside the pump, causes it to malfunction, and can stall the engine without warning while riding. The second recall affects 2009 models only, where a poorly crimped ground wire connection to the throttle and accelerator position sensors sends incorrect signals to the engine control unit, producing an unstable idle that can make the motorcycle difficult to control.
