2008 Harley Davidson FLH Recall

By Paul Crowe

Harley Davidson FLH RecallHarley Davidson has issued a recall for many of the 2008 FLH models for a problem with their fuel filters. Please read the details below for specific models.

Manufacturer: Harley Davidson
Model Year: 2008
Models affected: FLHP, FLHPE, FLHR, FLHRC, FLHRSE4, FLHT, FLHTC, FLHTCU, FLHTCUSE3, FLHTP, FLHX, AND FLTR
NHTSA Campaign Number: 08V357000
Potential Units Affected: 47579
Problem: Harley Davidson is recalling 47,579 model year 2008 FLHP, FLHPE, FLHR, FLHRC, FLHRSE4, FLHT, FLHTC, FLHTCU, FLHTCUSE3, FLHTP, FLHX and FLTR motorcycles. These motorcycles may experience a cracking of the fuel filter shell leading to loss of fuel pressure. This loss of fuel pressure can cause diminished performance and, in some cases, may cause an engine stall or a no-start condition. This condition could lead to a crash which could cause injury or death to the rider.

Corrective Action: Dealers will replace the fuel filter shell free of charge. The recall was to begin on or before August 4, 2008. Owners may contact Harley Davidson at 1-414-343-4056.

    The problem that Im having with my 2008 H/D FLHX is that the check engine light comes on and remains on for approx. 20 secs. after starting. I’ve taken back to the dealer from whom it was purchased and they were unable to find the issue. Also, i took it to a second dealer andthey thought they found the problem, but riding it for approx. 10 miles, I loss trottle power. After stopping and restarting the engine, the check came back on. I only have 2,800 miles on the bike………

    I’m having the same problem at the moment with my 2008 Street Glide. Is at the dealer now for two weeks. They changed the connectors related to the electronic throttle, an they told me that it was ready. I took it for a ride and found that is not running well with some loss of power and I took it back the next morning. Bike is at the dealer again going 16 days now.
