The short answer

NHTSA received Piaggio Group Americas, Inc.’s report on Jun 18, 2026. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 25, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

Loss of lighting can reduce visibility, increasing the risk of a crash.

Piaggio Group Americas, Inc.

(PGA) is recalling certain 2026 Liberty 50 and Liberty 150 motorcycles.

A fault in the electrical circuit may cause the low beam and/or high beam headlight to unexpectedly turn off.

In certain conditions, the instrument panel lighting may also fail to illuminate.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt. Owners’ complaints are counted on each vehicle’s page.
  • Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
