DEFECT #1 - POWER TRAIN:CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
Posted on: 2013-11-06
Description
Harley-davidson motor company (harley-davidson) is recalling certain model year 2014 flhtcu, flhtk, flhtp, flhx, flhxs, flhtkse, and flhrse motorcycles manufactured may 3, 2013, through october 14, 2013. The clutch master cylinder may allow air into the clutch system. Additionally, the motorcycles may have been assembled with an incorrect clutch release plate.

Corrective Action
Harley-davidson has already notified owners, and dealers will rebuild the clutch master cylinder and install the proper clutch release plate, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began in late october 2013. Harley-davidson's recall number is 0153. Owners may contact harley-davidson at 1-800-258-2464.

Corrective Action
Harley-davidson will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the motorcycles for brake line damage and replace the damaged lines as necessary. Dealers will also install one or two cable straps to properly prevent the line from being pinched in the future, free of charge. The recall began on june 25, 2014.
