I TOOK MY BIKE IN BECAUSE OF A LOUD TICK AND A SMALL OIL LEAK ABOUT 1 MONTH AFTER BUYING IT NEW. THE SHOT WORKED ON IT AND TIGHTENED ALL OF THE BOLTS. MY BIKE STARTED LEAKING OIL FROM THE VALVE GASKET SO I TOOK IT IN LAST WEEK. NOW 1 WEEK LATER, IT IS LEAKING OIL FROM THE HEAD GASKET. ITS A HUGE PAIN HAVING TO TAKE IT TO THE SHOP EVERY WEEK. *TR

3 of 3 complaints, reproduced as filed.
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.
