Consumer Description

THIS IS FOR A 2007 PIAGGIO BV500 SCOOTER. THE SCOOTER HAS A TENDENCY TO STALL AT IDLE OR LOW SPEEDS. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM RELATED TO THE FUEL PUMP. IT IS CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN MERGING INTO TRAFFIC. I HAD A VERY CLOSE CALL WHERE THE SCOOTER STALLED WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE BEFORE ENTERING THE ROAD. *JB
