2009 WILDFIRE WF650-C
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Wildfire Motors is recalling certain 2009 WF650-C motorcycles manufactured between April 2008 and January 2009 due to missing brake system safety features. These motorcycles have a single brake fluid reservoir without the required labeling and lack a brake failure warning lamp. Because of these missing components, operators may not properly maintain the brake system, and any brake fluid leak could cause complete brake system failure without any warning to the rider.
According to the recall notice, Wildfire will contact owners and dealers will correct the motorcycles at no charge. The recall began on April 18, 2012. Affected consumers should contact Wildfire Motors at 1-740-283-6540 to arrange for the correction.
