Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Harley-Davidson) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Trike and CVO Trike and 2020-2022 Touring and CVO Touring motorcycles. Please refer to Addendum A for specific vehicle model details. Due to a software error, the brake lights may illuminate without the rider applying the brakes. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Unintended illumination of the brake lights may confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will update the software on Touring and CVO Touring motorcycles. On Trike and CVO Trike motorcycles, a new pressure switch will also be installed. All repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 2, 2022. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464.

Power train, Vehicle speed control, Jul 22, 2025, crash
Rear wheel locked at 40 mph and power cutoff while on a highway on ramp (soft right turn) making the rear wheel slide to the right, causing my passenger and I to fall off the bike hurting our left extremities (legs, arms, wrists, elbows, shoulders) as it slid and ended on its left side on the right shoulder. Harley-Davidson RDRS and Rain Mode were turned on and the road was wet from a previous rain but visible debris on the road.
