Electrical System

Filed Dec 26, 2025OH

When throttle gets wet, it will cause the engine rpm to drop dramatically or even stall. You have to come to a complete stop, shut off everything including key and kill switch, then restart. KTM is aware of this but has delayed for several months sending out replacement parts even though they sent a letter notifying me that it was a recall. Your system doesn't show any recalls when there is. KTM needs to send out parts now and your system needs to acknowledge and list this recall.

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.
