All electrical connections, including relays, on the bike have white lithium grease. In wet conditions there are faults causing engine to stall or not start. Lithium should never be used on electrical connections. Silicone would be appropriate. This is a manufacturing problem that needs to be addressed.
Motorcycle will not start and idle consistently and it is believed that it is due to anyone of the following: TPS sensor, idle screw adjustment, throttle body, and/or ECU programming. If it is not any of these components, then it is an unknown problem. Motorcycle will oftentimes stall after starting or while riding in traffic which puts my safety at risk since the motorcycle stalling while riding in traffic may result in an accident. Motorcycle has been taken to a dealer for warranty repair and dealer claimed they could not replicate the issue even though bike would not start/idle properly when I picked it up. This should also have included an inspection by authorized manufacturer representative. No warning lamps or other indicators. This has been happening since day one of ownership and I've only owned the motorcycle for a few months.
COLD ENGINE STARTS ARE UNSUCCECCFUL UNLESS YOU KEEP REVVING THE ENGINE. ENGINE WILL STALL ERRATICALLY, ie; RED LIGHTS,STOP SIGNS, EVEN WHEN YOU COAST[NO THROTTLE]. THERES A DANGER OF COLLISION [THATS OBVIOUS], WHEN YOUR ENGINE DIES IN TRAFFIC. IT SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG OTHER 2022 ROYAL ENFIELD HIMALAYAN OWNERS. I UNDERSTAND FROM OTHER OWNERS THAT NOT EV ERY DEALER IS INNEPT ENOUGH OR TRAINED ON HOW TO REPAIR THE ISSUES. THIS BIKE HAS DONE THIS SINCE THE 1ST DAY I GOT IT.
3 of 3 complaints, reproduced as filed.
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.
