The amp can go bad or have water get to it from a pressure washer sprayed in the rear wheel arch. You'll know if you hear static.

Small data point, but I also had a 2017, 30k miles and 35-40 track days with no problems.

The other big part is the brake cooling. If you would like to go on track, a mod of the brakes is nesassary.

Had this happen to me, 2 weeks before the warranty went out!

I didn't realize it was a known issue though.

2017 here, owned from brand new, with 27,000 miles on the clock. Not taken her to a track, but as above, my only issue's been the charge pipe.

That, and multiple puncture (thanks to Houston roads!)

Hurt me baby, make me write bad checks...
