“2012 Flhtk ultra limited purchased 03/2012. On may 25th 2012 the front brake failed. The front brake lever was hard and would not move to engage the front brakes. I took the bike to the dealer and the following tuesday I was told the ABS modulator had a stuck valve or some unknown failure and hd was shipping out a part to fix it. Thursday that same week they called and said the bike was fixed. I have talked to the dealer and spent 5 hours on the phone with hd corporate office customer service. I have been told that there is no way for me to be informed of what exactly the failure was. …”
