2014 HARLEY DAVIDSON STREET GLIDE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO MOTORCYCLE RECALL NOTICE AND UNSATISFACTORY CUSTOMER SERVICE AT DEALERSHIP. *SMD WHEN THE CONSUMER CALLED HIS LOCAL DEALER, TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT, HE WAS INFORMED, THEY WERE REPAIRING MOTORCYCLES THEY SOLD FIRST AND HIS NAME WOULD BE PLACED ON THEIR CALL LIST. THE DEALER STATED, THEY DID NOT KNOW HOW MANY KITS THEY WOULD RECEIVE TO FIX THE RECALL.
Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Harley-Davidson) is recalling certain model year 2014 Trike motorcycles manufactured July 24, 2013, through September 2, 2013. Due to an incorrectly machined part, the motorcycle may have an excessive steering angle allowing the inner fairing to contact the rear brake fluid reservoir resulting in a loss of brake fluid. Additionally, the steering damper may be damaged.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Loss of brake fluid from the rear reservoir would reduce brake performance. Steering damper damage could reduce the rider's ability to control the motorcycle. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Harley-Davidson will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the trikes and replace the fork stem bracket, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 2, 2013. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson at 1-800-258-2464. Harley-Davidson's recall number is 0152.
