All Harley-Davidson Dyna recalls, newest first

  1. DYNA, FXDF, SOFTAIL · possible brake failure

    21 Jan 2015 · RM/2015/004

    The brake fluid in the front brake system could be contaminated. The contamination can cause the brake fluid to gel and / or corrosion to the master cylinder banjo bolt threads sufficiently severe to cause leakage or failure. If either of the conditions occur it will lead to a reduction in brake performance and increase the risk of a collision / incident.

    Fix: Recall the machines that are likely to be affected to replace the banjo bolt brake fluid and where necessary the master cylinder.
