Common Issues- Fuel pump failures. Multiple owners report the fuel pump failing, causing the bike to shut off or become disabled, sometimes leaving riders stranded on highways.
- Corrosion in fuel system. Alcohol in the fuel causes degradation inside the fuel tank and deposits in fuel pump filter screens, leading to repeated fuel pump failures.
- Loud fuel pump noise. Fuel pump noise becomes excessively loud during startup, requiring riders to increase radio volume; dealers refuse repairs until the pump fails completely.

Fuel pump has become excessivily loud to the point of you have to turn up the radio volume in helmet to hear music. During start up the noise is very loud as to someone raising their voice levels. Harley Davidson Dealer states that until the pump finally fails they will not fix or replace.

There is an issue with the alcohol in the fuel, causing degradation within the fuel tank and leaving corrosive deposits in the filter screens within the fuel pump, causing the fuel pump to fail. The fuel pump was replaced in the summer of 23 and I now have another fuel pump failing this date January 17, 2025.

I was participating in a funeral procession ride for a fallen fellow law enforcement officer with approximately 20 plus riders. During the procession I was riding my motorcycle at highway speeds of 75 mph when my motorcycle shut off completely. Luckily I was able to alert the riders around me and I was able to pull over to the shoulder. At the highway shoulder, I was able to restart my motorcycle and resumed the ride. A few hours later, I was almost home when my motorcycle shut off again in the same manner at busy intersection. This time I was stopped at a red light, when it turned green, I travelled a few feet when it happened. I was in the left lane of the light, when i experienced the failure other cars immediately began to swerve around me until I once again motioned for the drivers around me to stop so I could push my motorcycle to safe spot. I restarted the motorcycle a few minutes after and continued to my house where it has been parked since the date the incidents occurred which was on [XXX]. Internet research into the symptoms of failure my motorcycle experienced led to what may possibly be a faulty Body Control Module (BCM). I will soon be taking my motorcycle to the local Harley Davidson dealership for accurate diagnosis of the failure. I have lost trust in the safety of my motorcycle as a result of this major possible electrical failure. I own a 2022 Harley Davidson Pan America, I purchased the motorcycle in new condition at the Corpus Christi Harley Davidson dealership in Corpus Christi, TX.
