3 recalls across 9 model years
The Yamaha WR250R has 3 recalls covering 2008 through 2016 model years, with the most serious being a clutch push lever oil seal that can crack on 2014-2016 models, allowing engine oil to leak onto the rear tire and cause loss of control.
The 2008-2015 model years have a separate electrical issue where the stator coil inside the alternator can lose its insulation due to insufficient heat resistance, short circuit, and stop charging the battery. Once the battery drains, the engine stalls, which can leave the rider without power in traffic.
