| Description of the problem | I have been sent a second safety recall notice for 06v-444 harley davidson 2006 fxdbi. I brought my vehicle in to a dealer (biggs harley davidson san marcos) and they did other work put my bike in the shop for over 2 weeks. They were supposed to do the above mentioned recall, but claimed they never could get the part from harley. Later i complained to the bbb and the response i got from the dealer was that since i didn't buy the bike there that it wasn't there fault. That i needed to take it to a dealer that is 3 times further away from my house. I just got a second notice and this work was requested by me in may 2006, but the dealer never had the will to take care of the recall. I did all i was supposed to do and harley davidson let me down. |
