Electric bike maker LiveWire has launched a safety recall for its S2 Del Mar and Mulholland battery-powered bikes. According to an internal dealer communication, a problem with a high-voltage fuse may cause a loss of propulsion while riding, increasing the risk of a crash. Repeated rapid acceleration can open the fuse, causing the motor to stop without warning, while other electrical functions remain unaffected. A new replacement fuse and recall repair kit are currently being sent to dealers.
The models affected are the 2024 production of the S2 Del Mar and S2 Mulholland for the worldwide market. Dealers are asked to contact their distributors for more information, while owners are also being contacted. New bikes can only be delivered to customers once the repair kit has been fitted.
