NHTSA Complaint #10229785 — 2008 HONDA GL1800

ON THURSDAY, MAY 8, 2008, I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW HONDA METROPOLITAN SCOOTER FROM LAKE CITY POWER SPORTS AT 12048 LAKE CITY WAY N.E., SEATTLE, WA 98125. IN A MATTER OF FOUR DAYS, A NUMBER OF INCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED. IMMEDIATELY AFTER LEAVING THE STORE, I NOTICED THE MIRROR WAS LOOSE. MY BOYFRIEND, ANTHONY SHEARS, TOOK THE SCOOTER TO THE SHOP THE NEXT DAY, FRIDAY MAY 9, TO GET IT TIGHTENED. AGAIN, THE MIRROR CAME LOOSE AND ANTHONY HAD TO BRING IT BACK A SECOND TIME FOR TIGHTENING. ON SATURDAY MAY 10, ANTHONY WENT TO THE SHOP AGAIN BECAUSE THE BLINKER WAS STUCK. ALTHOUGH THE BLINKER SWITCH WAS IN THE RIGHT PLACE (IN THE MIDDLE WHICH SHOULD RESULT IN NO BLINKING), THE RIGHT BLINKER WOULDN'T STOP. ALSO ON SATURDAY WE NOTICED THE SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER HAD STOPPED WORKING. *TR
