2004–2005 Harley-Davidson Dyna & 2004–2005 Harley-Davidson Softail + 6 more recall: fuel system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motorcycles, a condition occurs that could allow pressure to build up in the fuel tank. On fuel injected vehicles, this condition could cause fuel to spray out unexpectedly when the fuel cap is removed. On carbureted vehicles, excessive fuel could be transferred to the carburetor, which would eventually allow fuel to drip from the air cleaner.
💥 The risk
These situations could cause serious personal injury or create a fire hazard for persons or property on or near the motorcycle.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will test each canister for blockage, then replace as necessary. The recall began november 4, 2004. Owners should contact Harley-Davidson at 1-414-343-4056.
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.)
