2008 Victory Vision recall: electrical system
⚠️ What's wrong
Polaris is recalling 2,444 my 2008 victory Vision motorcycles. The terminal nuts that secure the main power supply wires could be loose at the circuit breaker, which CAN cause an unexpected loss of electrical power to the motorcycle. Also the current fuel ignition map pre-programmed into the electronic control module (ECM) CAN cause engine stalling.
💥 The risk
Either condition could cause the engine to stall, increasing the risk of a loss of control and a crash.
🔧 The fix
Dealers will inspect and tighten the circuit breaker terminal nuts and re-program the ECM free of charge. The recall began on september 23, 2008. Owners may contact polaris/victory at 1-888-704-5290.
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.)
