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.

FUEL IS LEAKING FROM THE PLASTIC GAS TANK IN THE AREA WHERE THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY BOLTS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE TANK. THE PLASTIC FLANGE IS DEFORMED AND WARPED AND NO LONGER SEALS AGAINST THE METAL FLANGE OF THE FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY. THE FUEL TANK STARTED LEAKING GASOLINE WHILE PARKED IN THE GARAGE.

FUEL TANK ON MY 2009 DUCATI MULTISTRADA 1100 IS WARPING AND EXPANDING. ACCORDING TO INFORMATION AVAILABLE ONLINE, MY TANK MAY EVENTUALLY LEAK FUEL. MY DEALER TOLD ME DUCATI WILL NOT REPLACE MY TANK UNLESS IT IS ACTUALLY LEAKING. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. WHEN DUCATI DOES REPLACE TANKS, THEY REPLACE THEM WITH TANKS MADE OF THE SAME DEFECTIVE MATERIAL, SO APPARENTLY THEY ARE NOT TRYING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. DUCATI HAS APPARENTLY KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS, THEY SHOULD HAVE EITHER STOPPED SELLING THIS MODEL OR MADE A COUNTERMEASURE AFTER THEY LEARNED OF THE PROBLEM. *TR

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.
