RODE 90 MILES AND STOPPED FOR A 15 MINUTE BREAK, AFTER RE STARTING OUR RIDE AT THE 1ST REDLIGHT A NOISE STARTED WE COULD NOT IDENTIFY, AT THE THIRD RED LIGHT WHEN I SQUEEZED THE FRONT BRAKE TO STOP ( THE MOTORCYCLE WAS STILL MAKING A LOUD SQUELING NOISE) THE FRONT CALIPER LOCKED UP AND CAUSED US TO WRECK. AFTER THE MOTORCYCLE WAS REPAIRED I REPLACED THE FRONT CALIPER TO PREVENT ANOTHER WRECK. THE OLD CALIPER IS AVAILABLE. IT CLEARLY SHOWS A RIP IN THE RUBBER SEAL THAT GOT STUCK *CN

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.
