At the beginning of last week, Harley-Davidson came with the annoying news that production in York, Pennsylvania had to be temporarily shut down. That break is over, but Harley now says that the factory will run a limited production for the time being.
A problem with the brake lines, which were found not to meet Harley-Davidson’s quality standards, was the reason why the production facility in York had to be temporarily shut down last year. Once the problem was resolved, production could be resumed.
Until last week. In a press release, Harley says it has recently been informed again by tier-2 supplier Proterial Cable America (PCA) about possible quality problems with brake lines.
Harley says the limited production won’t be long-lived. Production is expected to return to full capacity on June 26. Harley says it does not expect international orders to be delayed due to the temporary limitation of production. In any case, the delay has no impact on the recently announced new CVO Road Glide and CVO Street Glide.
