WHILE RIDING MY NEW MOTORCYCLE I COULD NOT STOP AT A STOP SIGN USING MY REAR BRAKE- I HAD A "SOFT" BRAKE. EVEN DEPRESSING THE REAR BRAKE PEDAL TO IT'S FULLEST THERE WAS NO BRAKING AT ALL. MY DEALER REPAIRED THE CONDITION BY CHANGING THE MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE FLUID AND ALSO FOLLOWING THE FACTORY BULLETIN ON BLEEDING THE REAR BRAKES CORRECTLY. AFTER THREE MORE RIDES AGAIN THE REAR BRAKE FAILED TO WORK - THIS TIME AT FREEWAY SPEEDS ! IN READING THE ON-LINE FORUMS AND TALKING TO OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME MODEL IT SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE. *TR

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
