ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

Issued by Harley-Davidson Motor Company · Reported May 22, 2017 · 45,589 vehicles affected

What's wrong

In the affected motorcycles, a clamp used to secure an engine oil cooler line may have been improperly installed.

Consequence

The incorrectly installed clamp may result in the engine oil cooler line detaching, causing a sudden loss of oil, potentially into the path of the rear tire, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy

Harley-Davidson will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and correct the oil cooler line clamps, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on June 6, 2017. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464. Harley-Davidson's number for this recall is 0170.
