After a preliminary review of consumer complaints and other information related to alleged defects, NHTSA obtains information from the manufacturer(including data on complaints, crashes, injuries, warranty claims, modifications, and part sales) and determines whether further analysis is warranted. If warranted, the investigator will conduct a more detailed and complete analysis of the character and scope of the alleged defect.

Manufacturer’s Name: Honda
(American Honda Motor Co.)
Component Description: SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP:CONTROL UNIT/MODULE
Summary Description: Braking Performance
Summary
The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) received a defect petition requesting that it open an investigation and recall MY 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid vehicles for a possible safety defect related to braking performance.The petitioner in a defect petition letter and in a complaint filed with ODI under Vehicle Owner Questionnaire (VOQ) 10329383 alleging ineffective braking performance of the Honda Accord Hybrid vehicle while driving over rumble strips along side of the highway and simultaneously attempting to the brake.The petitioner alleges this began a chain of events, where the vehicle accelerated uncontrollably, the passenger attempted to stop the vehicle by pulling the parking brake and eventually the vehicle crossing over into traffic flowing in the opposite direction.The result was a crash fatally injuring the passenger and severely injuring the petitioner and two occupants of another vehicle. During the defect petition review, ODI analyzed complaints involving similarly equipped Honda Accord Hybrid vehicles and first and second generation Honda Civic Hybrid vehicles, reviewed data provided to ODI by Honda in response to an information request letter and performed testing of braking performance of a 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid vehicle at NHTSA's Vehicle Research and Test Center in East Liberty, Ohio.Based on this review, ODI does not believe additional investigation is likely to result in a finding that a defect related to motor vehicle safety exists.Therefore, in view of the need to allocate and prioritize NHTSA?s limited resources to best accomplish the agency's safety mission, the petition is denied.This action does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist.The agency will take further action if warranted by future circumstances.For more information, see the Federal Register notice in the DP10-004 file (www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/defects).

Manufacturer’s Name: Mack Trucks, Inc.
Component Description: TRAILER HITCHES:FIFTH WHEEL ASSEMBLY
Recall Campaign: 11V209
Summary Description: Failing 5th wheel attachment bolts
Summary
On October 3rd 2010 the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) received two complaints on 2009 - 2010 Mack CXU612 and CXU trucks for failing bolts that clamp the 5th wheel to the frame of the truck. On January 19, 2011 ODI opened this Preliminary Evaluation.During the course of the investigation ODI took possession of fasteners from the field.These fasteners, taken off subject complaint vehicles, exhibited 'hourglass like stretching' indicating plastic deformation.This same source supplied ODI with new fasteners (for the subject vehicle) that were recently purchased and never used.The bolts supplied by the manufacturer are M16 x 2 Class 10.9 bolts.Per SAE J1199, these bolts should have a proof load 130 kN (~29,000 lbf) and tensile strength of 163 kN (~36,600 lbf).These bolts are not designed to be torque to yield.ODI took possession of these field samples and sent them to (VRTC) Vehicle Research and Testing Center for testing.Some of the new and used fasteners from the field were tested to the SAE J1199 standard and all passed.Other tests at VRTC indicated that the stretched bolts were likely the result of over torque during installation or maintenance.VRTC tested other methods to pre-tension the bolts and found that load indicating washers and turn-of-the-nut method both gave better clamping load control than a torque wrench.In February 2011 Mack started to perform field inspections associated with this investigation in an attempt to understand the cause of the bolt failures.During these inspections, Mack discovered that there was an interference with the bolts used to secure the fifth wheel to the frame.This interference can prevent the bolts from being torqued to specification.If this occurs, the bolt(s) may fail and in extreme cases may result in the fifth wheel coming loose causing the trainer to separate from the tractor.Mack has issued a voluntary Safety Recall 11V-209 for (failure of fifth wheel mounting bolts). However, claims in the field suggest the manufactured supplied fasteners are inferior and stretch regardless of interference.ODI will continue to monitor this issue and follow the completion progress.If failures continue, ODI may open another investigation to investigate future failures.Mack Truck's recall action resolves the issues raised by this investigation and, therefore, this investigation is closed.

Manufacturer’s Name: Ducati North America
Component Description: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM
Recall Campaign: 11V003
Summary Description: Motorcycle Stalling
Summary
Following a discussion with Ducati about a communication in it's June 5, 2010 Tips and Tricks newsletter, the company agreed to recall all Model Year 2010 MTS1200 motorcycles to address a tip-out stall issue.With that recall, submitted in lieu of a the PE Information Response, this investigation is closed.
NHTSA Action Number: PE10044
Date Opened: 2010-11-04
Date Closed: 2011-02-07
Manufacturer’s Name: Ducati North America
Component Description: ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM:RADIATOR ASSEMBLY
Summary Description: Motorcycle coolant leak...radiator
Summary
After opening this PE, ODI gathered information from involved owners, Ducati dealers, and Ducati North America personnel.We were particularly interested in ascertaining how much hot coolant was leaking and whether it had the potential to burn the rider and/or wash the rear tire contact patch.On November 23, 2010, using a complaint radiator installed in a MY 2010 Ducati 848, we observed the subject leakage noting its consistency with what we were told by various dealers and owners.Over the course of 15 minutes, after reaching operating temperature, we noted the volume of leaked coolant to be de minimis.In the absence of alleged lower extremity burns and/or loss of rear tire traction (let alone, crashes), this supports a finding that no defect trend currently exists involving alleged coolant leakage from the subject radiator(s).Accordingly, this investigation is closed.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist.The Agency will continue to monitor complaints and other information relating to the alleged defect in the subject vehicles and take further action if warranted in the future.
NHTSA Action Number: PE10045
Date Opened: 2010-11-04
Date Closed: 2011-02-28
Manufacturer’s Name: Ducati North America
Component Description: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
Recall Campaign: 11V020
Summary Description: Fuel leak at pump/tank interface
Summary
After opening this PE, we met with subject owners, dealers, and Ducati North America personnel.We learned that the subject leakage is limited to the Multistrada line alone and is unrelated to composite fuel tank deformation.Rather it stems from the inability of the original sealing O-ring to conform to the tank's relatively rough sealing surface.Recall 11V-020 provides a new X section O-ring to address the Multistrada issue and with that recall, this PE is closed for the Multistrada.Meanwhile, unlike the Multistrada, the Monster line fails to exhibit a current safety defect trend and, on that basis, this PE is closed for those models as well.
