2019 DUCATI SUPERSPORT Complaints
I purchased the vehicle in May 2024, with 699 miles. Currently the motorcycle has only 720 miles on it. After buying the vehicle and before riding the bike, I called the local Ducati Dealership to inquire about any open recalls, and I was informed by the Mountain Motorsports Dealership that the last service was performed around 628 miles in 2021 and at that time a safety recall was performed, and the rear brake hose was replaced while under prior ownership and that no active recalls were in place. I took it into a local repair shop to have the oil changed and the bike serviced. After service, when the tech was test driving the vehicle the rear brake line failed and the brake fluid spilled while the technician was test driving the vehicle. It was a near miss, and it could have resulted in a fatal accident with oil spewing on the hot exhaust and possibly the road. I have sent an email to Ducati today and I am awaiting their response but felt it appropriate to report this incident as their was a safety recall, the repairs under the recall were performed and still I had the failure with a potentially very severe accident. Although there was no fire or injury, there was melted plastic and smoke. The repair shop is AOK Walker and the person driving the vehicle was Mr. Miles - 770-376-6078 (owner of the repair shop).;
