4 distinct campaigns affect this selection. Announcement dates below are different from vehicle model years. A campaign may cover multiple years.

23V591000 · Suspension:Rear:Shock Absorber

Reported: 2023-08-22 (August 22, 2023) · Model years: 2022, 2023

Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Harley-Davidson) is recalling certain 2018-2019 FLDE, 2018-2021 FLHC, 2018-2023 FLHCS, 2018 and 2023 FLHCS ANV, 2020-2023 FXLRS, 2022-2023 FXLRST, and 2022 FXRST Softail motorcycles. A fastener securing the rear shock absorber may break and allow the rear shock absorber adjuster to damage the rear tire, causing a loss of tire pressure.

Consequence: A loss of tire pressure can lead to a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will replace the shock absorber fastener, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 8, 2023. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464. Harley-Davidson's number for this recall is 0181.

New under warranty, 5,924 miles. Front end shudders and bounces when applying front brakes. Dealer service center said front brake rotors are warped and out of spec. No accident ‘YET’ but Harley Davidson is refusing to fix the brake problem under warranty (bike is 8 months old), stating brake rotors are a ‘wear’ item, although the Replacement rotors WOULD have a 1 year ‘warranty’. WTH ??? Brake rotors do not ‘wear out’ beyond OEM specs in 8 months and < 6,000 miles. Dealer claims ‘incorrect break in’ caused problem. My 2015 motorcycle bought fr…

On August 12, 2026, at 5,826 miles, my 2022 Harley-Davidson FXLRST M8 117 suffered catastrophic engine failure while traveling 65 mph on the freeway.

The engine shut down, locked completely and would not restart. No oil-pressure or other warning light illuminated. No engine/oil DTC was stored; only a battery fault was found.

Coming to a stop I heard a clunking noise from the rear. Took it in to dealership and a replacement of rear wheel bearing was replaced. Driving on the freeway I pressed the deceleration button on the cruise control and the engine shut off but no loss of power to electrical. During take off and slowing I heard a clicking noise returned to dealer and they found the rear wheel to be out of spec.
