According to Husqvarna, an update to the engine control unit (ECU) software will be carried out on all affected motorcycles.

Owners of affected motorcycles will receive a personal notification by letter and are invited to contact an authorised Husqvarna Mobility dealership to schedule a complimentary software update. The update will be performed free of charge and exclusively by authorised dealers.
