The 2015 Indian Chief Classic has 4 recalls, the most serious being a fuel rail that can contact nearby components and leak fuel, raising the risk of fire.
Two recalls involve fire risk. An engine misfire can allow unburned fuel to pass through the exhaust system, heating it to the point where it may ignite nearby materials. On the braking side, a faulty rear brake master cylinder can reduce or completely eliminate rear braking power, extending the distance needed to stop and raising the risk of a crash. There is also an electrical concern: the connector for the vehicle control module can fail and cut power to the front lights, including the headlight, reducing visibility for both the rider and other road users.
