2001–2002 Harley-Davidson Flhpei & 2001–2002 Harley-Davidson Flhpi + 9 more recall: lights

⚠️ What's wrong

On certain motorcycles, the clips that retain the wiring for the front fender tip light CAN become detached from the fender, causing the wires to fray and short.

💥 The risk

This could cause the lighting system fuse to blow, leaving the vehicle without an operational front fender tip light, headlight, taillight, running lights, and passing lamps (if equipped).

🔧 The fix

Dealers will replace the fender tip light wiring harness retention clips, and inspect and replace, if necessary, any damaged wiring harnesses. Owner notification began january 9, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Harley-Davidson at 1-414-342-4680.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
