Details

What's wrong: The timing chain tensioner may loosen over time, possibly causing oil to leak from the bottom of the tensioner adjustment bolt.

Why it matters: An oil leak can increase the risk of a crash.

The fix: Ducati will notify owners, and dealers will tighten the timing chain tensioner bolts, free of charge. The recall began January 24, 2019.
