Recall Description: A defect that relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain model year 2015 Tri Glide® (FLHTCUTG) motorcycles.


Safety Risk Description: On some of these motorcycles, the rear brake master cylinder may have been assembled with an incorrect master cylinder piston. In this condition, the piston may not provide proper support to the primary cup (seal). This could allow a tear to develop in the primary cup. If this condition remains undetected it could result in a reduction in brake performance, possibly resulting in a crash.

Remedy Description: Owners of the affected motorcycles will be asked to arrange service with an authorized Harley-Davidson dealer, who will confirm that the motorcycle or part is covered by this recall. If covered, the Retailer will replace the rear brake master cylinder with the recall kit at no cost to you.

What bike or trike do you have ?
I haven't heard of any of these type problems, but a short could happen on anything. make sure the shop didn't do something stupid when they were checking things.
