Harley Davidson Fltrt: 2024-2026 Milwaukee-eight Airbox Baseplate
Recall Summary Harley-Davidson is recalling approximately 568 motorcycles from 2024-2026 model years because the airbox baseplate may have a blocked breather port due to a manufacturing defect. This blockage can cause pressure to build up inside the engine crankcase, and if the dipstick is removed while pressurized, oil may spray out of the fill spout and cause injury. Harley-Davidson will inspect and clear the breather passage if it's blocked.

- Reason
- The airbox baseplate may have a blocked breather port due to a supplier manufacturing issue. A blocked breather port can result in pressure build-up in the crankcase. If the dipstick is removed while the Version: 3.0 (Jan 2025) crankcase is pressurized oil may be discharged from the fill spout creating a risk of injury. Remedy: Verify that air flows through the hose and into air box backing plate. If the air box backing plate port is blocked rework the breather passage.
