2006 Ducati ST3 & 2006 Ducati ST3 ABS recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motorcycles, the fuel sending unit wiring cables installed during production could be routed incorrectly possibly coming in contact with the exhaust pipes.
💥 The risk
This condition will burn out the cables insulation and cause a possible electrical short circuit stopping the fuel pump and consequently stopping the engine. If the engine stops while the motorcycle is being driven, it could increase the risk of a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect the fuel sending unit wiring cables and reposition them if necessary. The recall began on january 17, 2007. Owners may contact ducati at 1-408-253-0499.
Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
