What NHTSA recorded

Due to the length of the wires, the wiring harness could be pulled against the frame head tube during full right steering. If the handle bars are repeatedly turned rapidly and fully to the right, the repeated bending and tension may lead to damage or disconnection of wires in the harness.

Remedy

Dealer will install a wiring harness extension free of charge.
