2013 Aprilia Rsv4: what breaks, and at what mileage
What breaks on the 2013 Aprilia Rsv4
Only 1 defect report has been filed with NHTSA about the 2013 Aprilia Rsv4, which is too few to compute mileage percentiles or a risk score. The report reported no-start or intermittent start failure.
When each failure gets reported
Tick median reported mileage Solid middle half of reports Faint 10th to 90th percentile Colour how bad the failure is when it happens
How reports accumulate
Every report with an odometer reading, cumulative, from 0 to 200,000 miles. A curve that climbs early is a car with early problems, whatever its total.

Every reported failure mode
| Failure mode | System | Reports | With reading | 25th | Median | 75th | Per 1,000 | Typical repair | Severity |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No-start or intermittent start failure | engine | 1 | 1 | — | 900 | — | 1.6 | $200–$1,800 | Moderate |
This year had no usable recall paperwork, so the fleet-size estimate is the median of other years of the same model. Repair costs are typical independent-shop ranges for the failure, not figures from these reports.
What owners wrote
Verbatim from NHTSA complaint narratives, trimmed for length. The odometer reading is the one the owner gave.
No-start or intermittent start failure
I was riding my motorcycle in the day time late summer 2014, then decided to stop at the barber shop for a hair cut. I parked the motorcycle in front then went inside. When my hair cut was finished, I got on the bike then tried to start it but it would not start. I tried push starting it, jumping it, and still no starting. The motorcycle was under warranty so it was towed to the dealer, they replaced parts and started the motorcycle. This happened numerous times afterwards, about twice more that same year, then the next year, spring 2015, it happened again, this time it left me stranded downtown manhattan. On each occasion the motorcycle was brought to the dealer, each time they replaced a part, under warenty, which allowed the motorcycle to start again. The following year, 2016, my warenty had expired before it happened again, I had to pay out of pocket to have it repaired. I contacted the manufacturer to complain each occasion. After the warenty had expired, they refused to help me and became irate and disrespectful during the conversation. Now again, sprint 2017, my motorcycle will not start.
Every year of the Aprilia Rsv4
Scores compare each year against other cars of the same model year, so a low number on an older car is a real result and not an artefact of age.
What the reports on file say
The complaints recorded against the 2013 Aprilia Rsv4 are no-start or intermittent start failure (1 report, around 900 miles). With a sample this size these are anecdotes rather than a pattern, and they are shown because somebody looking at this exact car would rather see them than nothing.
Why this page is short
A model year needs about 8 reports before percentiles mean anything, and this one does not have them. Complaint volume tracks how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road, so a thin page usually means a rare car, a new car, or a car whose owners do not file.
Where this comes from. Every figure above is computed from NHTSA owner complaints and recall records for this exact make, model and year. Complaints are voluntary and self-selected, so treat counts as a floor. The methodology page writes out each formula, and the same numbers are available as JSON.
