Electrical System
Filed Apr 19, 2022MN

Total electrical loss to all electronics, followed by reset, followed by total loss again and ultimately the bike shuts off, while driving. All gauges went down, then powered back up, along with all warning lights (like in an initial start) as well as the Ride Command rebooting. This happens a handful of times and then the bike ultimately shuts down, even while driving, and no response to be able to get it start again until it sits for some time. Ultimately, the 10A re-setting breaker in the fusebox was replaced and remedied the issue.

2 of 2 complaints, reproduced as filed.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
