Consumer Description

PIAGGIO MP3 2008 SCOOTER. A GLITCH IN THE STEERING MECHANISM NEARLY CAUSED ME TO CRASH TWICE. IT WAS REPAIRED AND NOW THE DANGEROUS STEERING ISSUE HAS RETURNED AGAIN. NO HELP FROM PIAGGIO. THIS IS A MAJOR DESIGN FLAW THAT COULD EASILY CAUSE A FATALITY OR INJURY!!! THE STEERING BEARINGS ON THESE MODELS SHOULD BE REPAIRED FOR FREE BUT PIAGGIO REFUSES TO ADMIT ANY FAULT. *TR
