Engine & coolingCrashFire

I currently work for this company - but am about to be fired - so telling all.... [[redacted]] has had several cf250t-f fashion scooters ignite and catch on fire. The put out a "technical service bulletin" for this issue - but have not seen that the units are being repaired. The first scooter burned in 2008 in new york and [[redacted]] sent the technician to new york to our dealer [[redacted]] .

don't know if he will talk. This scooter was completely burned. The fire is starting in the exhaust and the tech bulletin issued bypasses the problem. [[redacted]] , president of [[redacted]] , has done his best to hide this problem. More scooters have burned and it is only a matter of time before someone gets seriously injured. This situation should not be hidden from the public and should not be handled as a "technical service bulletin"... A total recall needs to be issued before someone is killed or seriously injured. [[redacted]] is more worried about the money he can make - instead of consumers lives!!!!! As far as I know - [[redacted]] has told [[redacted]] in china that all of the scooters have been repaired... He has blatantly lied to them. He is a con-artist and has fooled them on more than this issue... I am sure he pocketed the money they paid for this issue also. Thank you for your time! Now... Time to fill in the irs. [[redacted]] [[redacted]] [[redacted]] [[redacted]] I listed this as a wildfire - it is not - it is a cfmoto - but this manufacturer is not listed. [[redacted]] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.S.C. 552(B)(6). *Tr
