Experience

Italian motorcycle manufacturer: Handling investigations by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The NHTSA probes were triggered by allegations that some motorcycles sold by the manufacturer had defective components. There were claims a faulty fuel injection system could cause "tip-out" stalling, and also claims that fuel tank deformation could lead to fuel leaks. NHTSA investigations determine whether a recall should be issued. In this case, the client strongly denied the allegations and defended the safety of its products. Throughout the investigation process, our team represented the client before the NHTSA successfully, as all open investigations were closed without further action, saving our client significant costs.
