In September 2024, Harley issued a recall affecting over 40,000 motorcycles due to a short-circuit risk, which created an increased crash risk for riders. The recall affected a total of 41,637 units of the FLHX, FLHXSE, FLTRX, FLTRXSE, and FLTRXSTSE models. According to the recall notice, a wire may rub on other components near the engine, wearing down the outer casing and exposing the wire, possibly leading to short circuits and the sudden loss of power of the motorcycle. This recall is an example of a defect that affects the safety of affected models.

If your motorcycle is presenting issues that cannot be resolved even after multiple repair attempts have been made, it may be a lemon – and you may have grounds to pursue a lemon law claim. Under the lemon law (the Song-Beverly Act), consumers could have grounds to file a lemon law claim if their vehicles (including motorcycles) are defective and cannot be repaired even after multiple repair attempts, given that there is still an active manufacturer’s warranty.

If your Harley motorcycle is defective, it is important that you take the necessary steps to protect your rights as a consumer and fight for your rights under the lemon law. When pursuing a lemon law claim, your motorcycle must still be under active manufacturer warranty, so you will need documents that show that your warranty is still active. In addition, it is important for you to have records of all repair attempts made on your motorcycle, including records of the issues, specific repairs made, the total length of time your motorcycle was in the repair shop, and the total costs associated with the repairs. Of course, you must also have the appropriate legal guidance.

Can I Handle My Lemon Law Claim Myself? – although it is possible to handle lemon law claims independently, we recommend having a lawyer. Unfortunately, motorcycle manufacturers may try to take advantage of unrepresented consumers, possibly making them lowball offers or refusing to remedy the situation.

Do I Need to Worry about Legal Fees? – No, under the lemon law, manufacturers are required to cover all legal costs for cases brought forth by consumers. This means that you can reach out to an experienced lawyer without ever having to worry about having to pay legal fees. What if my case is unsuccessful? Will I need to pay? Our firm works on a contingency basis, meaning that you will not be required to pay anything at all if your lawsuit is not successful.
