TVS Motor Company has initiated a proactive inspection program for a select batch of its iQube electric scooters. This program focuses on vehicles manufactured between July 10, 2023, and September 9, 2023.
Focus on Bridge Tube and Long-Term Durability
The inspection will specifically assess the bridge tube, a key chassis component, to ensure optimal ride and handling over extended use. TVS will contact owners of potentially affected scooters to schedule service appointments. During these appointments, technicians will inspect the bridge tube and make any necessary replacements free of charge.
Addressing Potential Concerns
While the exact cause for the recall hasn’t been officially disclosed by TVS, recent reports suggest it might be linked to a viral video on social media. The video allegedly showcased a customer experiencing a chassis fracture on their iQube. The cause for the fracture is also not certain yet. This inspection program highlights TVS’s commitment to customer safety and satisfaction.
If you own a TVS iQube manufactured within the specified dates, await communication from TVS or your authorized dealer to schedule an inspection appointment.
