| RQ10002 | BIG DOG MOTORCYCLES, LLC | 01/27/2010 | 05/10/2010 | Motorcycle Stalling | 10V180000 | |
| This rq was opened based on seemingly related owner complaints involving motorcycles outside the scope of 06v-301.during the course of subsequent discussions with the company, we learned that the earlier model year big dogs had a problem with the electronic harness control module connector that they'd previously addressed with a tsb.since the tsb addressed a safety-related issue (stalling), big dog agreed to recall the motorcycles subject to the tsb (10v-180).with that decision, odi agreed to waive requiring a response to its information request and is now closing this rq. | ||||||
