What happened is 2 bolts are made of the wrong material, so they corrode more than the bolts they are using to replace them.  Got mine replaced in 2 minutes.

The 2012 bikes that are affected are 1-99 (check your VIN).  Mine is 41, so they are now replaced.  I don't think anything more than extra corrosion has happened so far.

anyone got the VIN Nr for the 2011 ? At this stage I have not had a letter :-)

Re 2011 2012 recall for front brake calliper bolts.
I am still waiting for the front bolts they "were being sent out right away over a month ago.  After the recall but before I got the letter I had a belt sent up. Not only did they not proactively send up the bolts, they sent up the wrong belt.
I lost a month of great weather AND AM STILL WAITING FOR THE BOLTS!
I have a 2011 DS and do love it. I rode the 2013 and really loved it. Wow
Little concerned about the amount of service I have needed. Dreading end of warranty.

I am still waiting for the bolts for my bike. A 2011 DS.
Major screw up on Zero's part.
It was supposed to be there mid August.

In my case, my shop said that Zero had not sent the caliper bolts and they would give them a call.  So I waited a week and returned to the shop in person.  Guess what?  The bolts were there and had been there for a month.  They just hadn't been entered into the inventory computer.  They were lying in a pile on a shelf in the shop, instead of having been sent to the parts department.  Once the mechanic had found the bolt supply, my bike was fixed in just a few minutes. So the problem might not be Zero, but might be the way your shop is organized.
