Harley-Davidson is recalling approximately 16,994 of its 2025-2026 Softail motorcycles, including models FLHC, FXBB, FXLRS, and FXLRST. The rear brake line on these bikes can rub against the Body Control Module (BCM), which may eventually wear a hole in the line and cause brake fluid to leak. This defect can lead to a complete loss of the rear brakes, and Harley-Davidson will provide free repairs to all affected owners.
If the rear brake line develops a hole and leaks fluid, the rider will lose the ability to use the rear brakes. This significantly increases the distance needed to stop and raises the risk of a crash.
Dealers will replace the BCM caddy and hardware, and inspect/replace the rear brake line if damaged.
