There was a 'new' FaceBook post going around a month or so ago that another recall was coming, but when I looked it up it was still the one from like 3/15. It seems it keeps popping up. That might be all it is; I don't show anything for my '14 trike.

Not sure if related but here's my recent experience. Took it to the dealer twice because of the clutch issue before the recall was announced last year. Took it once again for the recall. It worked much better after the recall work. Now about a month ago it started leaking all around the cover. Checked both screws and they were fine. Took it back to the dealer and I told them I'm done with this already, change the complete pump. Well they did under warranty without any hesitation. I noticed immediately that it was working much better than ever. I think that the original pump was junk from the begining. Hopefully no more problems with this.

The complete clutch Master cylinder assembly. Old habit of mine calling it a pump. I guess because it works that way lol.

Got it. Based on the info passed along by my dealer the recall has to do with an incorrect seal being installed in the black OE front brake master cylinder of certain models. Despite the fact my VIN appeared on the recall list, I had already replaced the black OE version with the chrome replacement so nothing had to be done to mine. The recall does not apply to the chrome master cylinder replacement.
