| Defect | Due to a supplier manufacturing issue, the crankcase ventilation system may have a blocked breather port. This can result in excessive build up pressure in the crankcase, posing a risk of hot oil spraying out unexpectedly if the dipstick is removed while the engine is running or warm. If a person makes direct contact with the hot engine oil it could cause severe burns or eye injury. |
| Remedy | Owners of affected vehicles will be contacted by Harley-Davidson asking them to schedule an appointment to have the airbox backplate breather port inspected on their motorcycle and, if necessary, the breather port will be corrected free of charge. |
