WHILE ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE WITH THE REAR BRAKE, THE FOOT PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE END WITH NO RESISTANCE. REAR BRAKE PROVIDED NO STOPPING POWER. I STOPPED USING THE FRONT BRAKE ONLY. I INSPECTED THE BIKE AND NOTICED FLUID LEAKING FROM THE CONNECTION OF THE BRAKE ROD AND THE REAR BRAKE RESERVOIR. MY BIKE HAS 60 MILES ON IT, IS PRACTICALLY BRAND NEW AND HAD ABS BRAKES FROM THE FACTORY.

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.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
