    NHTSA 80V161000 Reported 2,502 vehicles potentially affected AMERICAN MOPEDS, INC.

    The rearview mirror of the involved mopeds has only 11.6 square inches of reflective surface and therefore does not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 111, "rearview mirrors", which requires 12.6 inches of reflective surface.

    Remedy: Dealer will inspect and replace all involved mirrors with mirrors of the correct size at no charge. The new mirrors will be 14.5 square inches.
