    A seat base that fractures while a passenger is using the hand-hold feature can increase the risk of injury.
    Remedy:
    Dealers will replace the seat base, free of charge. Owners are advised to not use the passenger hand-hold feature until the remedy is complete. Owner notification letters were mailed December 7, 2021. Owners may contact Harley-Davidson customer service at 1-800-258-2464. Harley-Davidson's number for this recall is 0178.

How to read this recall list

This list shows every safety recall campaign NHTSA has on file for this make, model and model year. It is not specific to one vehicle: a recall often covers only vehicles built in a certain date range or with a certain part, and many of the vehicles it covers will already have been repaired.

  • Some recalls carry an NHTSA consumer advisory, “Do Not Drive” or “Park Outside”. Follow it until the repair is done.
  • A single campaign often covers several models or model years, so the same campaign number can appear in more than one list.
