2018 DUCATI SUPERSPORT Complaints and Recall Information
The 2018 DUCATI SUPERSPORT has 0 complaints and 5 recalls filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report issues related to brake performance, mirror visibility, transmission shifting, and potential fuel system hazards. These concerns stem from safety-related defects affecting various components.
The vehicle has five recalls impacting several critical systems related to braking, visibility, transmission, and fuel safety.
- Rear brake system. Recall 21V315000 affects 5909 motorcycles due to air permeation in the rear brake lines. This reduces brake effectiveness and increases stopping distance, raising crash risk. Dealers will replace the rear brake hoses free of charge.
- Rearview mirrors. Recall 18V793000 covers 1676 units with mirrors prone to vibration distortion. This reduces rear visibility and raises crash risk. Dealers will replace mirrors at no cost.
- Shift lever assembly. Recall 18V835000 involves 2742 motorcycles where the shift knob may detach during operation. Detachment can prevent gear shifting, increasing crash risk. Dealers will inspect and replace the shift knob if needed free of charge.
- Fuel system hose routing. Recall 18V371000 addresses 1462 motorcycles with fuel and blow-by hoses routed too close to the exhaust manifold. Hose melting can cause fuel leaks and fire hazards. Dealers will correct hose routing free of charge.
Owners dealing with repeated repairs or unresolved recalls related to brake function, gear shifting, visibility, or fuel system safety should examine their rights under their state’s lemon law. Legal counsel specializing in consumer vehicle rights can provide guidance on potential claims.
