After 4000 miles the vehicle developed a severe"Stumbling" or misfiring like behavior. It was taken to one dealer and the charcoal canister of the evaporative emission system was full of fuel. The factory technician was unable to repair the problem and it was taken to another dealer where the emission system was replaced. The problem has been undiagnosed and still continues and makes the vehicle un rideable and unsafe. Ducati has been negligent and providing a solution to the problem and I feel the vehicle is unsafe to ride due to the fact of the inconsistent throttle making it unmanageable and I believe there is potential for a fire risk due to the excess fuel being dumped into the system. I can intermittently smell raw fuel and believe there may be a fire risk as well. Several attempts have been taken to have it diagnosed at two different dealers and Ducati has been unresponsive as to any personal request for assistance.

What owners reported
Newest filingsRear brake performance is erratic as a function of the unpredictable distance the pedal has to move to be effective.
Coasting to a stop and the engine shuts off. Bogging in low gears . Very dangerous in that my motorcycle stalled out 3 times on a major highway when coming up on a traffic jam. I'm contacting the dealer today to report issue. There were no warning lights before the engine shut down. I have over 30 years experience riding motorcycles of different brands and types and had never had this happen.

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.
