Chronology :

6/10/2021 – 10/28/2021 – Harley-DavidsoneBay logo’s Technical Subcommittee (TSC) investigated reports of brake lamps remaining illuminated on some MY20 Touring motorcycles. The TSC requested parts back from the field, engaged the suppliers and requested support in the investigation, and enlisted the support of H-D Engineering. Warranty and Customer Contact records were reviewed and analyzed. Based upon the information and data available (including the low frequency of known incidents and the fact that this condition can correct itself based on riding patterns/behavior), the TSC decided to close its investigation.

5/12/2022 – The TSC reopened its investigation after receiving reports that indicated a higher occurrence rate of this potential issue.

5/13/2022 – 8/24/2022 – The TSC reviewed updated Warranty and Customer Contact records. A software change was implemented at H-D assembly plants that eliminated this potential issue on future production. The TSC elected to monitor this issue monthly.

9/2/2022 – 9/13/2022 – After reviewing field data while in monitor status, the TSC moved this issue back to Active status. An updated search and analysis of warranty and customer contacts data was performed. The TSC escalated this issue to H-D’s Field Action Committee (FAC).

9/20/2022 – The FAC reviewed the TSC’s findings and analysis and escalated the matter to H-D’s Executive Decision Authority (EDA).

9/21/2022 – 10/10/2022 – The EDA met two times to discuss and review the information available. In addition, H-D reached out to NHTSA’s Office of Defect Investigation to discuss the circumstances associated with this issue.

10/11/2022 – Based upon the information developed during the investigation, the EDA authorized a voluntary recall to address this condition.
