ON MY 2006 HARLEY DAVIDSON DYNA, THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE INNER PRIMARY BEARING TO BE CHANGED OUT EVERY 15,000 MILES. FREE OF CHARGE, NOW IT STILL NEEDS TO BE DONE EVERY 15,000 MILES BE IT'S NOT FREE. THIS BEARING FAILS COULD CAUSE BIKE TO CRASH. HARLEY KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM AND DON'T WANT TO FIX IT RIGHT. *TR

I RECEIVED LETTER FROM HARLEY DAVISON, 12-13-2005, STATING I HAD A "FALSE NEUTRAL POSITION" RECALL ON MY J2006 DYNA GLIDE. LETTER STATED DEALERS WOULD HAVE PARTS WEEK OF DEC. 12TH, 2005. HOWEVER, WHEN I CALL DEALERS THEY STATE THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS AND IT MIGHT BE MONTHS BEFORE THEY DO. I CALLED HARLEY DAVISON TWICE AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD TRY TO EXPEDITE. IT HAS BEEN GOING ON MONTH AND A HALF AND STILL NO CALL FROM MY LOCAL DEALER TO REPAIR. WHAT DO I DO? *NM

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
