Recalls and investigations

  1. Engine and engine cooling, exhaust system, emission control, crankcase (pcv)Apr 28, 2026

    Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Harley-Davidson) is recalling certain 2024-2026 FLTRX, FLHX, 2025-2026 FXBR, FLFB, 2025 FLHXU, 2026 FLTRXL, FLTRT, FLHXL, and FLHLT motorcycles built with an Airbox Baseplate (part number 29000373). The airbox backplate breather port may be blocked, allowing pressure to build up inside the crankcase.

    When the dipstick is removed while the crankcase is pressurized, oil may eject from the fill spout, increasing the risk of injury.

    Dealers will inspect the breather port, and if the port is blocked, repair the blockage, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 14, 2026. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall became searchable on NHTSA.gov April 16, 2025.

  2. Electrical system, wiringSep 16, 2024

    Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Harley-Davidson) is recalling certain 2024 FLHX, FLHXSE, FLTRX, FLTRXSE, and FLTRXSTSE motorcycles. The voltage regulator output wire may rub on the front corner of the crankcase, exposing the wire and causing an electrical short circuit. A short can result in a loss of electrical power and drive power.

    The unexpected loss of drive power and the loss of electrical power while in motion increases the risk of a crash.

    Dealers will inspect and as necessary, repair the voltage regulator output wire harness, and install a secondary retention strap, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 23, 2024. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464. Harley-Davidson's number for this recall is 0186.

  1. Vehicle speed control, Jun 6, 2024

    The speedometer is off between 3 and 7 MPH, depending on the speed traveling. I took it in for service, and they stated they needed to consult with corporate. They never got back to me, and after a month, I reached out again, and they sent a text message stating the below: "David this is Jacob at Daytona HD. After speaking with Harley again on your speedo concern they consider it to be within acceptable range of being off. The ref # for the call is [XXX], if you would like to reach out to Harley regarding this the customer service phone # is 1 800 258 2464".
