- The problem
- Zero Motorcycles Inc. (Zero) is recalling certain model year 2015 SR, S, DS, and FX motorcycles. The affected motorcycles have a DC-DC converter that may have insufficient output power. During high power demand, the anti-lock brake system (ABS) may not function properly.
- The risk
- If the converter power output is insufficient, during an ABS activated event, the ABS and all vehicle lights would temporarily stop functioning, increasing the risk of a crash.
- The fix
- Zero has notified owners, and dealers will inspect the DC-DC converters, replacing ones of a specific type as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on September 16, 2016. Owners may contact Zero customer service at 1-888-841-8085. Zero's number for this recall is SV-ZMC-016-356.

the reasons that it has not been built during this period even though the same fault has occurred. Apparently there is the problem with several dc / dc controllers and the internet is full of very discusse about that. Unfortunately, I can no longer check that 2014 (from this year is the regulator) models have the same problem since the information about zero motorcycles disappeared at your hompage. I think it is definitely not the problem of the customer to pay the product errors. I have still one time the accumulator had already a capacity failure and a power drop of the engine to zero during one ride !!
