Indian Motorcycle is recalling seven different models, amounting to 23,746 units, for an issue with a fuel rail that may contact other components and result in a fuel leak.

The recall pertains to the Chief Classic, Chief Dark Horse, Vintage, Chieftan, Chieftan Dark Horse, Springfield, and Roadmaster models, for the 2014 to 2017 model years (manufactured between April 15, 2013, to July 15, 2016).

Since leaking fuel could be ignited by a spark, resulting in a fire hazard, Indian filed a recall with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Indian will notify affected owners, and Indian dealers will install a bracket that will limit movement of the fuel rail, free of charge.

The recall is expected to begin this month, December 2016. Concerned owners may contact Indian customer service at 1-877-204-3697, and reference recall number I-16-03.

As always, the NHTSA is also available at 1-888-327-4236 and safercar.gov.
