The 2024 Zero DSR/X has 4 recalls, the most serious being a front brake hose that can twist, leak brake fluid, and cause a significant loss of braking ability, extending stopping distances and raising the risk of a crash.
The brake hose issue accounts for three of the four recalls, with prior repair attempts not fully resolving the problem across the affected model range. The remaining recall involves key switch signal wires that may be routed incorrectly and can break under stress, cutting drive power without warning while riding.
