NHTSA complaint 11745375 - Filed Jun 16, 2026Failure Jun 12, 2026Schaumburg, ILFuel/propulsion system
My dealer service (Motor Cycle Center MCC, 443 E St Charles Rd B, Villa Park, IL 60181) scheduled Safety Recall Visit (approximate time - 30 min.) on June 12, at 11 am and still did not return my motorcycle. As for now, official answer is: "we should have an update for you tomorrow! " I talked multiple times to dealer, that I can provide motorcycle for Safety recall for 1 day only. But they called me 2 days straight in a raw and wanted to have it for service with "possible" same day return. There were 4 more motorcycles before mine on 2-nd waiting day... Today is 5-th day of holding my bike and no result... WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF SCHEDULING FOR THAT DEALER? Please help me to get my motorcycle back!
