3 recalls across 5 model years
The Ducati 1299 has 3 recalls spanning the 2014–2018 model years, with the most serious being a front brake master cylinder defect on 2015–2018 models where the cylinder can fail and cause a partial or complete loss of front braking, raising the risk of a crash.
The same 2015–2018 brake master cylinder issue has a related filing specific to the 2015 model year, where a crack can form in the plastic piston inside the cylinder, which is the physical failure that leads to that loss of braking. On the engine side, 2014–2018 SL and FE trim models can develop excessive crankcase pressure that pushes engine oil into the airbox, where it can then drip from the drain hose onto the road surface directly behind the rear tire.
