Consumer Description

Urgent, this Ducati purchase posed a great danger to my safety and life due to the loss of rear braking ability and a fire that was a result of brake fluid spilling on to the exhaust system, this failure posed a great danger to my life, should I had loss this ability to brake due to a sudden slow down in traffic. I did suffer what seems to be a sprain to my left hand as I desperately pulled both left and right hand levers extremely tight in order to stop the Ducati from hitting a wall after loosing completely the rear brakes. This 2019 Ducati is currently unsafe to be driven in Arizona streets and or Highways, and is out of service due to multiple melted break lines, missing Harness cover, brake line heat shield damage and damage associated with the fire. Ducati was purchased on September 4th 2021. Motorcycle miles at the time of purchase were at 108 miles stated on Sales Deal Deposit Receipt and time of Receipt is documented at 3:19pm. I left the dealer ship in Chandler at 4:32pm on September 4th 2021. The loss of rear brakes and fire was captured by my home security surveillance cameras at 6:43 pm in Tucson AZ. The mileage on the Ducati are at 235 miles, the purchase was at 108 miles for a total use of 127 miles and is unusable on the same day of purchase.
