2021 HARLEY-DAVIDSON FLHXS

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS

Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Harley-Davidson) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Trike and CVO Trike and 2020-2022 Touring and CVO Touring motorcycles. 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."

Risk: Unintended illumination of the brake lights may confuse other drivers, increasing the risk of a crash.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

This is my second report on 2021 street glide special. Bike goes into limp mode whenever it wants to. This has happened at idle at a light, driving 25 MPH in town and running at 65 MPH on the freeway. Bike was at the dealer for a month in 2022 and they claimed nothing was wrong. The first time was at 13,000 miles, Bike is currently at 28,000 and problem still here. Check engine light comes on and codes all run you in circles. Resetting ECM seems to be a short term fix. This is a very dangerous problem that needs to be addressed.
