2015 Yamaha XT250

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 (NA) YAMAHA XT250. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HAZARD LIGHTS ILLUMINATED WHEN THE LEFT AND RIGHT TURN SIGNALS WERE ACTIVATED. AS A RESULT, BOTH TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS WOULD BLINK AND CONFUSE OTHER MOTORISTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MIDDLE TOWN CYCLES (3711 COMMERCE DR, MIDDLETOWN, OH 45005, (513) 422-5471) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM HAD LOW POWER, WHICH WAS WHY THE HAZARD LIGHTS BLINKED INSTEAD OF ONLY THE TURN SIGNALS. THE MECHANIC DID NOT KNOW HOW TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200. *BF CONSUMER STATED MANFACTURER WANTS TO KEEP IT UNDER WRAP OR NOT KNOWN. MANUFACTURER HAS MADE NO ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THE BIKE AND REFUSES TO ADMIT THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG. BATTERY COMPANIES HAVE TOLD ME THE BATTERY IS TOO SMALL FOR THIS BIKE, LEFT TURN SIGNAL ON AND THE RIGHT SIGNAL BLINKS ALSO AND VICE VERSA. CONSUMER HAS ALSO CONTACTED THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU. *JB
