Fuel/Propulsion System · at 1,080 miles · reported Sep 30, 2014
The fuel pump unpredictably stops working and renders the vehicle unable to move. The fuel pump cut out on me at a traffic light, and I was unable to restart the scooter.

Fuel/Propulsion System · at 160 miles · reported Oct 2, 2013
Yamaha zuma 125 dies while in operation. Appears to run out of gas and stalls while in operation. This is a scooter with only 160 miles on it. In the middle of traffic, it stalls! Very unsafe! Almost got hit by an 18 wheeler! On the side of the road, the fuel pump is not working. Turn on the key, no fuel pump noise. Therefore, no gas! I purchased this scooter new. I had the issue at 50 miles and it continued. One year warranty, so dealer won't assist without billing me. This scooter had a recall in 2009 for the same problem. Yamaha most likely put the same parts on later year models.
