DT CONSUMER STATES THAT HIS MOTORCYCLE IS MAKING A SQUEAKING, SCRUBBING NOISE IN THE FRONT WHEEL. THE BIKE WAS TAKEN TO A SERVICE DEALER, BUT THEY HAVEN'T FOUND THE CAUSE OF THE NOISE. THE SERVICE DEALER DID SAY IT COULD BE DUST OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. *TT

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.
