Why it matters: These deposits may cause a valve within the ABS hydraulic control unit to stick, reducing braking ability and increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Harley-davidson will notify owners, and dealers will flush the entire brake system with new platinum label dot 4 brake fluid, free of charge. The recall began on February 14, 2018.
