2006 Harley-Davidson Dyna recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
On certain motorcycles, a battery caddy bolt may loosen under normal riding conditions. Should this occur, the bolt CAN back out which allows the battery to shift position and then hold the battery in a position which may allow the battery terminals to contact the metal battery caddy cover and abrade through the positive terminal protective boot.
💥 The risk
If this occurs, the battery CAN short against the cover, causing sparks and possibly a fire.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will replace the center battery caddy bolt. The recall began on november 30, 2006. Owners may 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.)
