3 recalls across 5 model years
The Harley-Davidson XG500 has 3 recalls spanning 2015 through 2019, with the most serious affecting 2016-2019 models where brake calipers can corrode internally in coastal or road-salt environments, causing excessive brake drag that raises the risk of a crash.
Both remaining recalls apply only to 2015 models. The fuel pump module on those early bikes can develop a poor seal at the inlet, interrupting fuel flow and causing a brief hesitation followed by an abrupt return of power. There is also a production issue where some 2015 models were assembled without a rear reflector, reducing the motorcycle's visibility to drivers behind it after dark or in low-visibility conditions.
