I checked H-D's website with my vin and it said there was no recalls on my 2010 FXDWG, but I called the dealer the other day and gave them my vin and they said it was one of the bikes with the issue. I knew it would be... Mine has always been a pain to get the gas cap screwed down all the way. I would have to push it down pretty hard while screwing it in, or it would just click through and stick up about a 1/4" off the tank. Anyway, I took it into the dealer today and was there about 10 minutes when they said it was done. Now my cap screws in very easy and I can feel and hear the seal contact the tank. Inside the cap bung, there is quite a bit of heavy marks where this "tool" reshaped the threads, but they must've put something in there to catch the paint shavings or something because I couldn't find any of them and I had an almost empty tank. I'm guessing mine was pretty out of shape due to how many marks on the threads there are now, but it screws in very easy now.
