- The defect
- Zero Motorcycles Inc. (Zero) is recalling certain 2024 DSR/X, DS, DSR, and DSRP motorcycles. The front brake hose may be twisted and become damaged, which can cause a brake fluid leak and a loss of brake pressure.
- What it can cause
- A loss of brake pressure will reduce braking ability, increasing the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and replace the hose as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were be mailed July 28, 2025. Owners may contact Zero customer service at 1-888-841-8085. Zero's number for this recall is SV-RCL-025-017.
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 44 vehicles this is a small campaign: 79% 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, 2024, so the oldest vehicles on it were one model year old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Zero vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic 6 times before this, most recently in June 2022 as 22V403000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 26V048000 (service brakes, hydraulic), 25V587000 (electrical system).
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 Zero Motorcycles Inc. with NHTSA on July 11, 2025 as campaign 25V459000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
