Deer Park motorcycle injury lawyers on the recent Ducati recall: a high performance Ducati + a leaky fuel line = a recipe for highway injury and disaster
The Deer Park motorcycle injury lawyers at Denena & Points note that the NHTSA just announced a recall on certain high performance Ducati bikes because of cracked, leaky fuel lines. The Ducati recall relates to certain 2011 - 2012 Monster and Hypermotard motorcycles manufactured from June 25, 2011 to December 1, 2011. (See: www.safercar.gov for a list of the recalled bikes.)
In the Ducati bikes subject to recall, the material used in forming the fuel lines might not have been allowed to dry sufficiently prior to being extruded. The premature extrusion resulted in the micro-cracks in the fuel lines. The cracks carry the potential for fuel leakage, which in the presence of an ignition source could lead to severe property damage and personal injuries. Ducati says it will replace the recalled fuel lines free of charge on affected motorcycles.
Our Deer Park motorcycle injury layers urge all owners of the affected Ducatis to act promptly to get the Ducati defect repaired. Potential for debilitating and fatal injuries exists in any motorcycle accident. Adding a leaky fuel line to the accident mix is a recipe for disaster. If the fuel line ignites or explodes, there is very little buffering the rider from the hazards of the flames.
If you receive injuries because of a manufacturing defect in your bike, you do not have to suffer in silence. You could be entitled to full monetary compensation from the manufacturer for the costs of your injuries and losses due to the defect.
