4 recalls across 3 model years
The Ducati Multistrada 1200S has 4 recalls covering 2010 through 2016 model years, with the most serious affecting 2010 models where the throttle cable can chafe against the radiator, causing the throttle to seize open or stop responding entirely while the motorcycle is moving.
The most recent recall covers 2015-2016 models manufactured through mid-2015, where the side stand can break due to an incorrectly sized support tube, causing the motorcycle to fall onto the rider or passenger when parked. On 2010 models, a separate side stand issue involves the center stand pivot screw working loose during normal use, allowing the stand to detach and either drop into the rear wheel or reduce ground clearance enough to create a hazard while riding. Also on 2010 models, an incorrect screw installed in the steering head assembly can compromise steering integrity, though the specific failure mode was not detailed in the filing.
