What happened

Harley-Davidson is recalling certain 2014-2015 FLS Softail motorcycles manufactured between March 25, 2013, and October 2, 2014, because they may lack a lamp-outage indicator for the front turn signals. Without this indicator, riders may not know when a front turn signal has stopped working, which increases the risk of a crash. The motorcycles fail to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108 regarding lamps and related equipment.

Harley-Davidson will notify owners, and authorized dealers will update the body control module software at no charge to correct the issue. The recall began on November 24, 2014. Affected owners should contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464 and reference recall number 0618 to schedule service.
