On August 8, 2022, Genuine Scooters issued a recall for all 2022 NIU MQiGT EVO scooters that the scooter distributor has imported into the United States. A firmware issue related to the electric motor can cause these scooters to suddenly lose power, without warning. Sudden power loss could result in riders losing control of their bikes and crashing.
As of August 8, 2022, Genuine has so far imported 38 total 2022 NIU MQiGT EVO scooters into the country, and an estimated 100 percent of units are believed to be affected. According to documents filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, this is a larger problem for NIU, so if you are reading this and are located outside the U.S., you may want to check recalls related to this model in your region.
