One complaint can name several systems, so shares can add to more than 100 percent.

Date: 2007-06-07. Systems: SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC.
Defect: ON CERTAIN MOTORCYCLES, THE GRAPHITE EXHAUST BUSHING, WHICH SEALS THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE EXHAUST PIPE AND THE MUFFLER, MUST BE REPLACED EACH TIME THE MUFFLER IS REMOVED AND REINSTALLED. IF THE EXHAUST BUSHING IS NOT REPLACED, EXHAUST GASES MAY BE PERMITTED TO LEAK PAST THE BUSHING.
Consequence: THE REAR BRAKE HOSE MAY BE IMPAIRED OR MELTED, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE HEADER, PIPE, CLAMP AND GASKET, THEREBY ELIMINATING THE POTENTIAL ISSUE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON AUGUST 31, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT VESPA/PIAGGIO AT 1-212-380-4400.

Notes on this record
Complaints from the API and bulk file are merged and deduplicated by ODI number; the API alone misses records.
System and subsystem counts are numbers of distinct complaints, recalls or communications that name them. One record can name several systems, so shares across systems can add to more than 100 percent; a single share never exceeds 100 percent.
Recalls are counted once per campaign, investigations once per action and manufacturer communications once per NHTSA id, even when NHTSA lists several model names for the same record.
A sales denominator is a calendar-year proxy, not the population of vehicles still in use. Rates are copied from verified pipeline output.
