Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Safety condition exists whereas when shifting into 1st gear from neutral, intermittently, the transmission does not engage unless multiple attempts are made. This has caused me to almost drop the bike, multiple times, during attempting to start off after shifting into first. This has also caused a close call during a situation where I needed to move quickly to avoid an oncoming vehicle and couldn't accelerate when shifting into first. This issue occurs multiple times during each ride and should be seriously investigated before someone gets seriously injured or worse.”

NHTSA complaint #11230417, filed 2019-07, 25 miles
