NHTSA recall 22V781000
Exterior Lighting · Harley-Davidson Motor Company
Details
What's wrong: Please refer to addendum a for specific vehicle model details. Due to a software error, the brake lights may illuminate without the rider applying the brakes. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
Why it matters: Unintended illumination of the brake lights may confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will update the software on touring and cvo touring motorcycles. On trike and cvo trike motorcycles, a new pressure switch will also be installed. All repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 2, 2022.
