Vance & Hines Issues Statement on Federal Trade Commission Action

Vance & Hines Issues Statement on Federal Trade Commission Action Against Harley-Davidson Background: The Federal Trade Commission announced a complaint on June 23, 2022, against Harley-Davidson, ordering the company to “fix warranties by removing illegal terms and recognizing the right to repair, come clean with customers, and ensure that dealers compete fairly with independent third-parties.” Link to Federal Trade Commission Press Release: https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2022/06/ftc-takes-action-against-harley-davidson-westinghouse-illegally-restricting-customers-right-repair-0 Statement from Mike Kennedy, President & CEO of Vance & Hines: “This action taken by the FTC is a huge win for motorcycle riders. While we still need to see how this plays out, we anticipate that riders will have more choices in how they repair and update their motorcycles during the warranty period, which is clearly a big deal for companies in the motorcycle aftermarket, too. I hope that the “it will void your warranty” threat for someone who just wants a better sounding or smoother running Harley is a thing of the past.” * * * To Stay updated on all Motorcycle News and Industry Announcements … – simply Click & Subscribe to Bikernet’s FREE Weekly Newsletter
