CFMOTO motorcycle recall in Canada: Brakes may not work properly
In plain language
This recall affects certain 2023, 2024, and 2025 CFMOTO 450SS, 450NK, and 450CL-C motorcycles in Canada. The brake line seals on the antilock braking system (ABS) pump may not have been manufactured properly, allowing air into the brake system. This could cause the rear brake pedal not to work properly, leading to reduced braking and extended stopping distances. CFMOTO recommends not using your motorcycle until repairs are completed.

- CFMOTO will notify owners by mail.
