The 2014 Harley-Davidson FXDL has 2 recalls, both centered on the same serious issue: engine vibration can damage or shift the ignition switch, causing the motorcycle to stall without warning while riding.
In affected bikes, the vibration either moves the ignition switch into the accessory-only position or damages it internally, with the same result in either case: the engine cuts out mid-ride, raising the risk of a crash.
