Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The rear brakes completely failed, since the front and rearbrakes are a linked system the braking capability is seriously affected. If the speed was higher, I or someone else could be seriously injured or killed. The local dealer admits issues nd has done everything they could do, the dealer and I have tried to get the manufacturer (polaris/Victory) and they do not admit any problems yet there are other complaints for the same thing.”
NHTSA complaint #10485219, filed 2012-11, 6,500 miles“As I was approaching an intersection. I went to apply my rear brakes, and the brake pedal went straight to the floorboard. I made a couple quick attempts to pump my brakes, while also braking hard with the front.”
NHTSA complaint #10462322, filed 2012-06, 17,450 miles“For the third time I have lost the rear brake. The first two times, the dealer bled the brake. This time I was told I need a master cylinder. This bike has 17500 miles. I have also had several incidents of stalling, and other electrical issues. I am not sure if the stalling/ electrical issues was not just limited to my bike. I have been told that this bike has known issues with the rear brake. It goes mushy and the pedal goes all the way down. I was told my bike is not the only one. I was sent away with this condition not repaired, as the dealer did not have a new master cylinder available. …”
NHTSA complaint #10329363, filed 2010-05, 17,500 miles“This is the third time this has happened. After the bike has set unused for 2-3 months the rear brakes have no pressure. The pedal goes to the floor. I have taken it to the dealer and they said they bleed the brake lines and all was good. After the riding season and letting the bike set for 3 months the same thing happened again, no rear brakes.”
NHTSA complaint #10564444, filed 2014-02, 11,556 miles“I was approaching a turn where a sign indicated to reduce speed. Went to apply rear brakes and they went to the floorboards again! Attempted to pump brakes, but they would not hold. Had to ride with only front brakes. This is a real safety issue. The dealer keeps stating that Victory keeps instructing them to bleed the brakes. This is only a temporary fix.”
