Reporting of safety defects

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which
could cause a crash or could cause injury or death,
you should immediately inform the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to
notifying Ducati North America, 10443 Bandley Drive
Cupertino, California, 95014, Tel: 001.408.253.0499,
Fax: 001.408.253.4099. If NHTSA receives similar
complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it
finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles,
it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However,
NHTSA cannot become involved in individual
problems between you, your dealer, or Ducati North
America. To contact NHTSA, you may either call the
Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-800-424-9393 (or
366-0123 in Washington, D.C. area) or write to:
NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE W43-488,
Washington, D.C. 20590. You can also obtain other
