Another recall this week, this time affecting the 2015 Harley-Davidson Street 750 (manufactured May 12, 2014, to June 24, 2015) & Street 500 (manufactured January 20, 2014, to June 24, 2015) motorcycles.
According to the information provided to the NHTSA, 10,580 motorcycles have a faulty fuel pump, which has a poor seal at the fuel pump inlet.
The faulty seal on the fuel pump can cause an interruption to the fuel supply, which could cause a brief hesitation with also an abrupt return of power.
This abrupt power fluctuation could lead to loss of control, increasing the risk of a crash, thus a recall is in order.
Harley-Davidson says it will notify owners, and Harley-Davidson dealers will install a new fuel pump assembly, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin the end of August 2015.
Concerned owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-414-343-4056, and reference recall #0167. As always, the NHTSA is also available at 1-888-327-4236 and safercar.gov.
