EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS
- The defect
- Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA (Yamaha) is recalling certain 2021 Tracer 900 GT (MTT9GTM) motorcycles. The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) printed on the Federal Certification label may not match the VIN stamped on the vehicle. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification."
- What it can cause
- An owner that references an incorrect VIN label may not recognize their vehicle is involved in a safety recall, and may not have the recall remedy performed, which could increase the risk of injury, fire, or a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Yamaha will notify owners, and dealers will install a correct certification label, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 12, 2021. Owners may contact Yamaha customer service at 1-800-962-7926. Yamaha's number for this recall is 990151.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 16 vehicles this is a small campaign: 89% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2021, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2021, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Yamaha vehicles have been recalled over the equipment 2 times before this, most recently in February 2021 as 21V048000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 22V130000 (engine and engine cooling), 22V110000 (vehicle speed control).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Yamaha Motor Corporation, USA with NHTSA on October 25, 2021 as campaign 21V836000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
