I was sending in a complaint due to the fact that i have read that there was lawsuit regarding the gas tanks expanding on ducati's. I wanted information on how to go about getting mine replaced. *tr

Noted fuel leaking where fuel pump housing attaches to composite fuel tank. Fuel pump housing, connections, and fittings have never been removed or altered in any way, shape, or form by the owner of the vehicle (owned 4/12/2007 to present). Issue appears be related to composite (non-metallic) fuel tank deformation over time. Leaking fuel is a serious safety-issue that may cause potentially serious injury, harm, or damage to the vehicle operator, vehicle, and other persons and/or property. *tr

The gas tank has expanded to the point that it does not stay in the holding brackets. The tank is loose and is a dangerous driving hazard. Ducati is replacing the tank with the exact same material which does not solve the problem. A tank made out of the same material will result in the same problem all over again. A permanent solution should require a change in the gas tank material used. *tr

On october 28, 2011, while operating my 2006 ducati sportclassic i noticed that the fuel tank was loose towards the forward part of the fuel tank. Upon further inspection, i observed that the fuel tank was no longer secured by either the left-side or right-side mounting brackets attached to the vehicle frame. It is clear that the dimensions of the plastic fuel tank over time has warped or changed to such an extent as to render the two forward securing brackets ineffective in their present state. This results in the fuel tank dependent solely on a single rear mounting bolt to secure the fuel tank in place. As a consequence, it is clear that any operator of the vehicle risks injury should the fuel tank come loose or become unstable while operating the vehicle. It has also been observed that the fuel tank dimensions have over time warped to such an extent as to now impede the full use of the vehicle steering mechanism. This also results in increased risk of injury to any operator of the vehicle. It is clear that an effective, permanent solution is required of the manufacturer to address the safety issues related to this fuel tank as its present design, materials, and manufacture is defective. *tr

The fuel tank on my 2006 ducati paul smart motorcycle is defective. The tank has warped to the point where it is no longer properly attached to the motorcycle's frame. This can cause serious, perhaps even fatal, injury to the rider. My ducati dealer has replaced the fuel tank under the 5 year emissions warranty. Unfortunately, the tank that ducati provided is made from the exact same composite material as the one that went bad. I believe the ethanol in today's gasoline is causing this issue of tank warpage and separation. Please investigate and have ducati recall all their sport classic motorcycles (which includes my 2006 paul smart model) to replace the fuel tank with one that is not affected by ethanol. Note that my motorcycle has fewer than 350 miles over the 5 year period. This is a travesty on ducati's part. Shame on them. *tr

The gas tank on my 2006 ducati sport classic motorcycle has become deformed and the mounts can no longer securely hold the tank in place. The manufacturer may replace the tank but it will be replaced with the a gas tank made of the same defective material. *tr

The plastic used fuel tanks is incompatible with the motorcycles' fuel, which causes the tanks to rapidly degrade and deform and leads to a number of unsafe conditions. Among other things, as the plastic degrades and deforms, the fuel tanks interfere with the full range of steering, leak fuel onto the engine, and destabilize the motorcycle's weight distribution-often to the point that the motorcycle cannot be safely operated after only a few thousand miles of use. *tr

Fuel tank of said 2006 ducati sport classic, 1.) fuel tank has expanded no longer fitting into the brackets that hold the fuel tank securely in place. (fuel tank would move about) 2.) fuel tank developed deformation along the top portion of the fuel tank approximately a 10 mm in length area (left of fuel filler cap). 3.) fuel tank developed protruding dimples along right side and left side of fuel tank. 4.) factory decal on fuel tank developed a 1.5 mm dia. X .3 mm protruding bubble on the front portion of the fuel tank near the ignition switch. *tr
