What to know about the latest Harley-Davidson recalls
- Recalls for Harley-Davidson motorcycles often involve rear brake components, rear shock pre-load adjusters, clutch disengagement issues, or brake-line/brake-fluid concerns. Recent high-profile examples have included tens of thousands of bikes recalled for brake-related issues and tens of thousands more for shocks or braking components that could affect handling or stopping performance. To confirm the absolute latest, check the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recall database and Harley-Davidson’s official recall page.
Where to look for the most up-to-date information
- NHTSA recall page: search for Harley-Davidson to see active and completed recalls, affected model years, and remedy details.
- Harley-Davidson official recalls: their service and recalls page lists current notices with model-year applicability and repair steps.
- Reputable news outlets: outlets like Fox-owned affiliates, CBS News, and automotive/dealer publications typically publish bite-sized recall updates when large recalls are announced.
How to check if your bike is affected
- Gather your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), which is on the inside of the front fork on most models or on the frame.
- Visit the official Harley-Davidson recalls page and use their VIN lookup, or use the NHTSA recall lookup by VIN to see if your specific bike is included.
- If affected, contact your local Harley-Davidson dealer for a free inspection and repair.
