A year earlier, the company recalled nearly 46,000 of certain 2014 and 2015 Electra Glide, Street Glide, Ultra Limited, Road Glide and Road King bikes. There were 27 crashes, and four minor injuries, associated with that clutch problem, according to news reports then.
I want a mandatory safety system, integrated with the regular headlights-vs-DRL switch, the hazard light switch, rain sensor, sunlight sensor (the thing that normally biases the air conditioning/automatic climate control on sunny days), vehicle speed sensor, forward and aft looking radar, and a new left lane sensor. This device will either blast the driver with an annoying, deafeningly loud screech or better yet provide real time electro shock therapy to the driver’s seat any time the person:
But, I hate the lane departure warning, forward collision warning and the like because bad drivers rely on them rather than actively driving the car. Good drivers will ignore the false alerts until one day its for real and they still ignore it. Normalization of deviance its called in some circles.
The clutch system in a manual transmission is one of those components that doesn’t necessarily see much innovation. Every once in a while a manufacturer will do something big and wild with it, but it’s rare. Last time it was Porsche with the tiny carbon clutch in the Carrera GT – and now it might be General Motors with an electrically actuated slave cylinder, covered in a recently filed patent application.

This issue led to the loss of power-steering, power brakes and potentially airbag deployment in certain cases.
And, when might arguably want such technology working for you, it gives up the ghost and shuts down – as in bad weather. And it doesn’t even have to be raining or snowing very hard.
We werenât in the truck for very long, and we didnât get to deep dive into the dashboard tech or interior trim options, as this was an engine program only. But we did get enough of the flavor of the gas-powered engine options for 2019 to give a decent accounting of whatâs coming down the road. The short version: 2019 will be a very good year for the Chevy Silverado.
It’s going to get harder and harder to find vehicles that aren’t expensive, over-featured, junk. At some point the only thing left for purists is going to be the Transit van…
The situation has left Finn frustrated. Shortly after the incident, he filed the complaint shown above with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. What bothers him isn’t just the money he had to pay or the six-week downtime on a truck he’d just bought, it’s also safety.
