Car recalls: Why they happen and what buyers should know
Why do car recalls happen? Here's what to know if your car has an open recall.
Harley-Davidson Motor Company is recalling more than 82,000 bikes due to an issue that increases the potential of a crash, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is reporting.
The mounting tab on the rear shock pre-load adjuster may break on certain 2018-2024 Softail motorcycles, the federal agency said in a recall notice dated June 12, allowing the rear shock absorber adjuster to damage the rear tire, causing a loss of tire pressure.
The possible malfunction can lead to a risk of crash or death, officials said.
Harley-Davison had not reported any deaths or injuries in connection to the issue, as of early June.
Some vehicles included in the recall were previously repaired under recall 23V591, and will need to have a new remedy completed.
Here's what to know about the recall, including which years are affected and how to remedy the issue.

2 Small-Cap Stocks to Keep an Eye On and 1 to Think Twice About
Investors looking for hidden gems should keep an eye on small-cap stocks because they're frequently overlooked by Wall Street. Many opportunities exist in this part of the market, but it is also a high-risk, high-reward environment due to the lack of reliable analyst price targets. These trade-offs can cause headaches for even the most seasoned professionals, which is why we started StockStory - to help you separate the good companies from the bad. That said, here are two small-cap stocks that could be the next 100 baggers and one that could be down big. Market Cap: $2.94 billion Founded in 1903, Harley-Davidson (NYSE:HOG) is an American motorcycle manufacturer known for its heavyweight motorcycles designed for cruising on highways. Why Should You Dump HOG? Sluggish trends in its motorcycles sold suggest customers aren't adopting its solutions as quickly as the company hoped Shrinking returns on capital suggest that increasing competition is eating into the company's profitability 13× net-debt-to-EBITDA ratio shows it's overleveraged and increases the probability of shareholder dilution if things turn unexpectedly Harley-Davidson is trading at $24.20 per share, or 7.3x forward P/E. Dive into our free research report to see why there are better opportunities than HOG. Market Cap: $5.94 billion Backed by two million square feet of lab testing space, AAON (NASDAQ:AAON) makes heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment for different types of buildings. Why Are We Backing AAON? Annual revenue growth of 20.7% over the past five years was outstanding, reflecting market share gains this cycle Earnings growth has trumped its peers over the last five years as its EPS has compounded at 18.2% annually Market-beating returns on capital illustrate that management has a knack for investing in profitable ventures AAON's stock price of $73 implies a valuation ratio of 30.2x forward P/E.

Why Are We Positive On MEDP?

‘His passion for the sport was undeniable': GoFundMe helping family devastated by Niagara motorcycle racer's death
A GoFundMe account launched following the death of a Canadian championship motorcycle racer on the weekend in Welland has already raised more than twice its original goal. A target of $30,000 was initially set to support a family left devastated by the death of Tyler Seguin at age 29 during the final race on Saturday night's program at Welland County Speedway. As of mid-afternoon Tuesday, more than $64,500 had been donated toward the campaign's new target of $90,000 . In addition to funeral expenses for the Welland native, the money will help Seguin's partner, Jenna Price, and their two-year-old son Reid face challenges moving forward. 'They are absolutely devastated and aren't sure how they're going to continue on without him,' wrote Sam on the GoFundMe page organized by Price. 'They're facing a devastating, awful loss.' She wrote the intro on behalf of Price, 'my best friend.' 'He was an amazing father and partner to Jenna and Reid.' In its tribute on Facebook, Merrittville Speedway in Thorold said Seguin will be remembered as 'a fierce competitor, a true talent and a respected member of the flat track racing family.' Tyler Seguin, No. 22 in this photo from 2011, was a familiar face in the winner's circle at Welland County Speedway. He died at the track Saturday night. 'His passion for the sport was undeniable, and his presence on the track will be sorely missed. The entire Merrittville Speedway family extends its deepest condolences to Tyler's family, friends and the entire flat track racing community during this incredibly difficult time.' American Harley-Davidson posted on Facebook it was 'deeply saddened' about the racing community's loss. 'We watched Tyler grow up at the track and he ended up turning into one hell of a rider, but even a better dude. You'll be missed, Tyler.' Welland County Motorcycle Club, which owns and operates Welland County Speedway, paid tribute to a rider whose No. 22 was a familiar sight in the winner's circle at the quarter-mile clay track on Netherby Road. 'Tyler has been part of the Welland County Speedway family since he first took to the dirt at just four years old,' the club wrote in a Facebook post. 'Over the past 25 years, we watched him grow into a fierce competitor, a Canadian national champion, and a Welland County Speedway track champion. 'The impact of Tyler's loss will be felt deeply by everyone who has ever called this track home.' This Saturday's program has been cancelled but it has yet to be determined whether more race nights will be impacted by the speedway's first racing fatality since 1979. 'In light of the heartbreaking events this past weekend, Welland County Speedway will not be holding a race on Saturday, June 14,' the club said in a statement. 'We believe it is important for families, friends, fans and track staff to take some time to grieve and be with one another away from the track. 'We want to be respectful of the tremendous loss that the Seguin family and racing community have just experienced.' The 2025 racing schedule at the motorcycle track has nine programs in all. Last Saturday's was the second of the season. Though Seguin's injuries were suffered on a track during a race and not on a public road, Niagara Regional Police were called into investigate. 'On a very general basis, any time there is a fatality as a result of a motor vehicle, private property or public, our traffic reconstruction unit (TRU) would be called in and take over the investigation,' media information officer Const. Rich Hingley wrote in an email on Tuesday. The Standard has left a message with the TRU on the status of the investigation. Two laps were remaining in the 10-lap 450 Expert feature, the premier race on Saturday's program, when Seguin got 'tangled up' with other racers in the field of eight. Welland County Motorcycle Club president Jack Wilson said in an interview Sunday the accident happened when Seguin was in fifth place. 'He took the inside and they got tangled up,' Wilson said. 'There's no fault, no blame, it's simply a racing accident. 'One guy is holding his line, the other guy goes underneath.' One other rider suffered minor injuries. 'He's fine,' Wilson said. 'He fell, bumped his head, but he's OK.' Seguin, who died at the scene, is the first fatality at the track since Bob Harpwood was killed at age 20 in 1979. Mourners attending Tyler Seguin's funeral service Saturday at Pleasantview Funeral Home & Cemetery are asked to bring their motorcycles. A post on his partner Jenna Price's Facebook page said there is a plan to line the parking lot ahead of the 1 p.m. service so funeral directors can arrange parking. Two visitations will be held Friday — 2-4 p.m., 6-8 p.m. — for the popular flat track motorcycle racer who died of injuries suffered in the final race of Saturday night's program at Welland County Speedway. The Welland native was 29. In 2023, Seguin won the Canadian Flat Track championship.
