Todays date is 9/17/2023, this recall notice involves my 2015 Ural sidecar motorcycle model cT. I received recall notice #22V431 from Irbit Motor Works of America Inc. over a year ago. Irbit Motorworks has decided that a defect involving wheel spokes that may not have been tightened properly can result in damaged rims or a wheel lock-up which can increase the risk of a crash. I have been trying to get this recall fixed but without success, I have contacted Irbit, Ural motorcycle, repeatedly throughout the year...

and my request have been ignored. Last week I called and left messages for 3 days and no one called me back. I think a year is more than a reasonable amount of time to get this resolved and at this point I just don't know what else to do.
