Recall - there are no parts available to fix my bike, and yamaha is not doing enough in my opinion. I would be more satisfied if they could simply give me a date when the parts would be to my dealer. Instead I get the following response "we are not sure when the parts will be available, but they should all be out by the end of april. But that is not a hard date, so please do not take that as a hard date" what the heck does that mean. And they also refuse to give any compensation for loss of use. I am still required to pay my note, insurance, and my warranty is ticking away. And I was told my yamaha there is nothing they can do to compensate any of their owner. This is the worst product customer service I have ever come across.

In 01/09/2004 I received a recall on my motorcycle for transmission problems.I called my dealer and told them about the recall ,they told me to call back in a week and they would schedule me in to get it taken care of.I called back and they told me that they dont know when parts will be in and that they would call me. It has been almost 3 months and icalled them today and was told that it could be possibly 3 more months before I get my bike in to get it fixed.I cannot ride my bike for 6 months yet am still paying for it.this isnt right and to top it off people were telling yamaha about these problems a year and a half ago and nothing was done.I feel I shouldnt have to wait 6 months to possibly get my bike fixed.I feel yamaha has and is doing a very poor job to me and its customers.for the year and a half that I know of ,that people were trying to get yamaha's attention and they did nothing was very dangerous and now they are screwing us again by taking 6 months to repair our bikes.this is some of our primary source of transportation and the have warned us not to ride our bikes untill the bikes are fixed.that is so wrong to take that long!!!!

Filing complaint because yamaha is unable to resolve recall issue in a timely manner. I received a recall notice in jan. 2004 not to ride motorcycle due to a possible transmission failure. I called my dealer and he said he would order the parts and now he is telling me that there is no release date on the parts to fix my bike. I cannot use my motorcycle but I am still obligated to pay for something that I cannot use. I feel that this has not been handled in a timely manner. I just want my bike fixed.
