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 38 vehicles this is a small campaign: 81% 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, 2022, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Genuine Scooter vehicles have been recalled over the electrical system once before this, most recently in July 2014 as 14V408000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 22V629000 (steering).
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 Genuine Scooters, LLC with NHTSA on August 8, 2022 as campaign 22V597000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
