2017 HARLEY-DAVIDSON Trike

WHILE RIDING THE TRIKE STALLS OUT WHILE STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, OR STOP SIGNS. TOOK IT TO HARLEY, THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. AFTER RIDING FOR FOURTY YEARS, PRETTY SURE I KNOW IS SOMETHING IS WRONG, AND THERE IS! AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE, I FIND THAT I AM NOT ALONE WITH THIS PROBLEM, AND THAT THE FIX IS A FAULTY SAFETY SWITCH ON THE CLUTCH. THE TRIKE WILL ONLY START IN NEUTRAL, WHICH IT SHOULD START IN GEAR WITH THE BRAKES APPLIED, THIS IS A SIGN THAT THE SWITCH IS BAD. AFTER SPENDING $150.00 FOR HARLEY TO TELL ME NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT, AND WASTING FIVE HOURS THERE, I AM NOT HAPPY. AS SOON AS I LEFT THERE, I PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC, AND IT STALLS OUT ON ME RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A INTERSECTION. I TRY TO START IT, AND AGAIN, IT WON'T START UNTIL IT IS BACK IN NEUTRAL, BY NOW, I AM ABOUT GETTING RUN OVER BY SERIOUSLY TICKED OFF PEOPLE IN CARS, BECAUSE I AM BLOCKING TRAFFIC. I REALLY THINK THAT THE FIRST TIME THAT SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT, OR KILLED, SOMEONE WILL TAKE NOTICE TO THIS ISSUE, AND HOPEFULLY IT ISN'T ME, BECAUSE I WILL MAKE SURE THAT SOMEONE GETS SUED OVER THIS, ESPECIALLY AFTER I WAS TOLD THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH ME TRIKE. YOU WOULD THINK AFTER SPENDING 35,000 I WOULD HAVE A DEPENDABLE TRIKE THAT I COULD RIDE SAFELY, AND ENJOY.
