Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I had just left my house and after a few minutes of riding, I came up to a stop, when I attempted to squeeze the front brake lever, it was frozen and would not budge. Luckily, I was not going fast and or needed an emergency stop, I was able to stop with downshifting and rear brake. I coasted back home slowly with no additional issues other than no front brakes. The front brake lever froze and I was unable to squeeze the lever, causing me to brake with the rear (foot) brake to stop. …”
