Harley-Davidson motorcycles are to be recalled in Russia

Harley-Davidson Rus announced the recall of 15 Harley-Davidson TG1 motorcycles sold from June 2019 to the present time. The reason for the recall is the traction control software, which may incorrectly respond to an error signal from the rear wheel speed sensor, activating one of the rear brakes. Inadvertent activation of one of the rear brakes can lead to an unexpected change in the direction of the vehicle, which may increase the risk of an accident, informed the press service of Rosstandart.

All motorcycles will be updated with the software of the electronic control unit for vehicle systems. According to the analytical agency AUTOSTAT, by the results of 2019, sales of Harley-Davidson motorcycles in the Russian market grew by 9% and reached 969 units. As a result, Harley-Davidson is the fourth one among the best-selling motorcycle brands in Russia.
