2015 Harley-Davidson FLHTCUTG recalls

Recall 14V-750: Service Brakes, Hydraulic

Reported Nov 24, 2014 · 1,560 vehicles affected · Harley-Davidson Motor Company

Problem: Harley-Davidson Motor Company (Harley-Davidson) is recalling certain model year 2015 Tri-Glide FLHTCUTG motorcycles manufactured July 14, 2014, to October 15, 2014. The affected motorcycles have a rear brake master cylinder assembled with an incorrect piston. This piston may not provide the proper support and may allow a tear in the primary cup.

Risk: If the primary cup develops a tear it will decrease the brake performance, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Fix: Harley-Davidson will notify owners, and dealers will replace the rear master cylinder, free of charge. The recall began December 16, 2014. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 414-343-4056. Harley-Davidson's number for this recall is 0162.
