Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Victory Vision motorcycles of all years have been experiencing separation of the rear portion of the two piece front fender assembly. Fender. I have personally seen the cracks and repairs by the owners after a harrowing experience of having the fender come loose and jamming the steering. I own a 2013 Vision and do want to experience the same problem. Given the nature of the defect I am surprised that no-one has been killed by this yet. I don't want it to happen to me. …”

NHTSA complaint #10548727, filed 2013-10, 14,500 miles

“The rear portion of the plastic front fender has cracked where the mounting bolts attach it to the front forks. I caught it before it broke loose from the bike. If it comes loose it will wedge itself between the front wheel and the front of the motorcycle making it impossible to steer. This also happened to my 2011 Victory Vision as well as to many other owners. Victory simply replaces the fender with a unit of the same design. This design needs to be updated before someone gets hurt badly.”

NHTSA complaint #10535411, filed 2013-08, 21,301 miles

“The Victory Vision has a two piece plastic front fender which is held together with plastic fasteners and mounted directly to the metal forks with metal screws. Vibrations fractured the rear portion of the plastic fender at the point where it contacts the metal forks, this caused the rear portion of the fender to fail, dislodge itself and become wedged between the forks and the main body of the motorcycle affecting steering. Fortunately the speed was low and there was no accident, however, if this incident had occurred at highway speed or during cornering the result could have been fatal. …”
