Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK ON MY 2007 DUCATI MONSTER 695 IS DEFORMING ON THE SIDES. THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK USED TO BE SMOOTH ON ALL SURFACES BUT NOW THE SIDES ARE RIPPLED AND THE RIPPLING IS STEADILY GETTING WORSE. TODAY IS MAY 30, 2012 AND I FIRST NOTICED THE RIPPLES IN NOVEMBER 2011. THE MOTORCYCLE HAS NEVER BEEN CRASHED OR EVEN DROPPED AND IT IS GARAGE STORED. I SUSPECT THE GASOLINE IS SOFTENING THE TANK OR THE TANK IS ABSORBING SOMETHING. IT IS WINTER HERE, SO IT IS NOT TEMPERATURE RELATED. *TR

PLASTIC FUEL TANK IS EXPANDING LATERALLY. TANK DOES NOT FIT ONTO FRAME AS ORIGINALLY INTENDED AND AS SOLD. STEERING STOPS HAVE BEEN ALTERED TO THE POINT THAT THE BIKE CANNOT BE LOCKED IN PARK POSITION. THIS IS TO ACCOMMODATE THE STEERING CONTROLS NOT DAMAGING THE TANK. *TR *JS

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
