The 2018 Yamaha XMAX has 2 recalls, the most serious being a camshaft retainer bolt that can loosen and cause the engine to stall unexpectedly, which can lead to a loss of control and a crash.
The second recall involves the rear reflector, where condensation or other contaminants can build up on the lens and reduce how visible the scooter is to drivers behind it, raising the risk of a rear-end collision.
