ON JANUARY 26 I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM APRILIA TO "RIDE WITH A VERY MODERATE SPEED TO YOUR AUTHORIZED APRILIA DEALERSHIP" BECAUSE THE "PROBLEM COULD CAUSE THE SPROCKET FASTER TO LOOSEN AND SUBSEQUENTLY LEAD TO THE LOCKING OF THE REAR WHEEL WHILE DRIVING" MY DEALER STILL DOES NOT HAVE ALL THE PARTS (THE LETTER STATES THAT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE). THEY CAN'T GET APRILIA TO UPDATE THEM ON PARTS AND ASKED ME TO TRY. I HAVE SENT 4 EMAILS AND LEFT 2 VOICE MAILS WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE (212-380-4433) AND HAVE NOT RECEIVED AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT OR RESPONSE OF ANY SORT. I HAVE NOT HAD FULL USE OF THIS BIKE SINCE JANUARY AND THEY APPEAR UNCONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY OR GETTING ME BACK ON THE ROAD. WHAT CAN DO TO GET THEM TO RESPOND AND RESOLVE THEIR SAFETY ISSUE?
Piaggio Group Americas, Inc. (Piaggio) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 Aprilia Tuono V4 1000, 2016 Tuono V4 1100, 2015 Caponord 1200 ABS/ADD, and 2016 Caponord Rally motorcycles manufactured June 18, 2013, to June 13, 2016. The affected motorcycles have a front brake master cylinder that may allow air into the hydraulic circuit, causing a longer than expected braking distance.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If an abnormal distance is required to stop the motorcycle, there is an increased risk of a crash.
Remedy: Aprilia will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front brake master cylinder pushrod and boot assembly, free of charge. The recall began October 04, 2016. Owners may contact Aprilia customer service at 1-866-705-1727.

Consequence & remedy
