Complaints on fileComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

THE NIGHT ROD SPECIAL FUEL GUAGE DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. AFTER FILLING UP, IT SHOWED LESS THAN 1/2 TANK IN CITY DRIVING. AFTER DRIVING A SHORT DISTANCE AND RESTARTING, IT SHOWED ABOUT 3/4 FULL. AS THE DRIVE CONTINUED ON A HIGHWAY, IT INCREASED TO POSSIBLY THE CORRECT FUEL LEVEL. AFTER STOPPING WITH APPROXIMATELY 1/2 OF A TANK, ONCE RESTARTED, IT DROPPED RAPIDLY TO EMPTY, FUEL LIGHT CAME ON, AND REMAINING DISTANCE STATED ZERO. I IMMEDIATELY WENT TO A GAS STATION TO FILL UP. ONLY 2.5 GALLONS OF THE 5 GAL TANK WERE USED. I HAVE READ ON MULTIPLE SITES AND FORUMS THAT HARLEY-DAVIDSONS, IN PARTICULAR THE VRODS, FUEL GUAGE ARE NOTORIOUS FOR WORKING IMPROPERLY. THIS IS A SAFETY MATTER AND MUST BE FIXED BY HD.
