What this recall covers

NHTSA's campaign record, quoted as published

The defect

Ducati North America (Ducati) is recalling certain 2017-2018 Ducati Supersport, and Supersport S motorcycles. The Airbox blow-by and fuel tank overfill hoses may be routed too close to the exhaust manifold, which may cause the hoses to melt.

The risk

If the hoses melt, it can cause a fuel leak, increasing the risk of a fire.

The remedy

Ducati will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the hose routing and correct as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on July 6, 2018. Owners may contact Ducati customer service at 1-888-391-5446.

Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
