Specifically, the following models built in 2024 are affected:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Zero Motorcycles DS<\/li>\n<li>Zero Motorcycles DSR<\/li>\n<li>Zero Motorcycles DSR\/X<\/li>\n<li>Zero Motorcycles DSRP<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Cause of the problem and previous cases<\/h3>\n<p>Back in December 2024, Zero Motorcycles received two warranty claims reporting a leaky brake hose. In one case, the rider lost control of the motorcycle because the front brakes lost a significant amount of their effectiveness. Since no injuries occurred at that time and the number of cases was low, no recall was initiated initially.<\/p>\n<p>However, in June 2025, eight further complaints were received, six of which came from a European fleet. Investigations revealed that the front brake hose had been installed twisted by 180 degrees in some cases. This twisting can lead to damage and leaks, which in turn can result in brake fluid leakage and pressure loss. This increases the risk of an accident, as well as possibly a fire, injury, or in extreme cases, even death.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Recall and remedy<\/h3>\n<p>According to its own statements, Zero Motorcycles has responded to the new findings and recalled the affected models for inspection and, if necessary, replacement of the brake hose. This will be carried out free of charge at all authorized dealers. According to the manufacturer, owners of the affected motorcycles will be informed of the recall in writing starting July 28, 2025. If you have any questions, please contact customer service at +1-888-841-8085. The internal reference code for this recall is SV-RCL-025-017.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Summary of the most important facts<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Recall affects 44 vehicles from the 2024 model series (DS, DSR, DSR\/X, DSRP)<\/li>\n<li>Problem: Twisted front brake hose with possible leakage<\/li>\n<li>Consequences: Brake fluid leakage, loss of pressure, reduced braking performance, increased risk of accident<\/li>\n<li>Remedy: Inspection and replacement of the brake hose by a specialist dealer, free of charge<\/li>\n<li>Notification of owners from July 28, 2025<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"g g-1\"><div class=\"g-single a-9\"><div class=\"atkp-container atkp-bestseller-box  atkp-template-bestseller\">\n                        <div class=\"atkp-box atkp-clearfix \"\n                 style=\"\">\n                <div class=\"atkp-predicateheadline atkp-predicate-highlight\">\n                    <span><\/span><\/div>\n                <div class=\"atkp-ribbon\"><span>#1<\/span><\/div>\n                <div class=\"atkp-thumb\">\n                                            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"atkp-image\" src=\"https:\/\/gzhls.at\/pix\/92\/07\/9207e27e7f48401a-n.webp\" alt=\"Schuberth C5 Glossy Black\" title=\"\">\n                                                                    <div class=\"atkp-rating\"><span class=\"atkp-star atkp-star-0 atkp-star-00\" title=\"0.00 of 5 stars\"><\/span><\/div>\n                                                                                    <div class=\"atkp-reviews\">Show customer reviews<\/div>\n                                                                                                                    <div class=\"atkp-shoplogo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/gzhls.at\/b\/logos\/103572.jpg\" alt=\"motoin.de\" style=\"max-height:50px;max-width:140px\" title=\"\"><\/div>\n                                    <\/div>\n                <div class=\"atkp-content\">\n                                            <a class=\"atkp-title\" href=\"https:\/\/geizhals.de\/redir\/AwAAAC7BgyM14o_7tTYSfTEOSB7XBR0q1wdLFd-9rI2HY3RqGFz-NwI92VISt967oc8v2pXnvW1_WsOVbETKHenKb9-W8dwVaTpuOCzpbaIKofbONbFgWlZtD5M_Ofq_9lppg1rH_yDBYMC9-xjCHkIgytR3kjFLi3sxxyWNjmq0vNXN8m-1cjculfTt1nZ51P1VDGpXKpzA6u0GI53gNM0pPhpS9p0HNlHcZ8HUoLK9Csdk-q3p6KoSENLFs9qbfPW9pkIcbtlA9JMBkC4ooRzehMdvEOsu0rStnrfxonxM1oeWlOAkdyOQVxLbMDWSw8betrCosChnOOL6xXCBVCgFgPQ\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Jetzt kaufen bei motoin.de\">Schuberth C5 Glossy Black*<\/a>\n                                        <div class=\"atkp-author\">by Schuberth<\/div>\n\n                    <div class=\"atkp-description\"><ul>Schuberth 4157215360Schuberth C5, Klapphelm &#8211;
