A Federal Court Judge has denied a Harley Davidson motion to dismiss Harley bikers’ claims for fraudulent and unfair business practices, violations of Consumers Legal Remedies Act (CLRA), and unjust enrichment. A class action lawsuit may now go forward against Harley Davidson alleging certain Harley motorcycle engines produce severe, and excessive heat causing burn injuries and clothing to catch on fire.

Harley Davidson Sued

Last week, a federal judge ruled that a class action lawsuit against Harley Davidson could go forward, siding with four bikers who claim their Harley Davidson motorcycles were defectively designed because their engines ran so hot as to pose a constant danger to riders of being burned and were therefore not fit for their intended use.

The complaint alleges that since 1999, Twin Cam 88, 96, 103 and 110 cubic inch engines in Harley motorcycles produce severe, excessive heat causing clothing to catch on fire, burn injuries and the danger of burn injury to riders and passengers as well as overheating causing premature engine wear and in models manufactured after 2006, transmission failure. Although Harley Davidson asked the Eastern District of California court to throw out the claims under state law, the U.S. District Judge sided with the bikers.

Greg Owen, a partner at Los Angeles personal injury attorneys Owen, Patterson & Owen and one of the lawyers representing the plaintiffs in this case, states, “Harley Davidson has known about this problem from the early 2000s and has the technology to fix it, but has chosen to sell tens of thousands of touring bikes here in California without disclosing this known defect. When Harley customers complain to Harley’s dealers after purchase, Harley’s response is that’s normal and it refuses to offer an effective fix to the problem.”

Owen believes the unsafe heat problem is due to Harley selling larger engines that cannot comply with the emission standards of many states, including California.

‘The fix is pretty simple,’ says Owen, “and Harley already has it – manufacture touring bikes with liquid cooled engines instead of air cooled engines. If Harley did that this serious design and safety defect would go away.”

The recent ruling allows the case to move forward, and Harley Davidson will now face Class Action Certification process at the end of the month. image

Amsoil

The AMSOIL Mopar Muscle Engine Challenge doesn’t officially get underway until next month, but excitement is starting to build amongst competitors and enthusiasts alike. This past weekend 7 selected engine builders brought their builds out to the Mopar Nationals in Columbus, OH. The engines were featured in a display for Mopar enthusiasts all weekend before being shipped off to Comp Cams facility in Memphis, TN. This is where they will remain until they undergo dyno testing once the competition officially kicks off September 19th.

The concept of the Amsoil Mopar Muscle Engine Challenge is for builders to create a solid, well-built engine based off the same set of rules. Engines cannot be valued at more than $5,500 without facing penalties in horsepower calculations, ensuring an even playing field for those with the talent but less means for fancy parts. As the Presenting Sponsor, Amsoil is the only lubricant allowed and will be installed in every engine.

Amsoil

The AMSOIL Mopar Muscle Engine Challenge is the perfect platform for engine builders to showcase their talents to the market that needs them. In addition to the display coverage at the Mopar Nationals, Mopar Muscle also features extensive coverage of the entire event in the pages of their magazine. AMSOIL will be covering the challenge right here on the Events Blog as it unfolds next month, so be sure to check back for updates.

It’s Your Car – Let It Age Gracefully

Do you drive a used car?

Of course you do. Everybody drives a used car. The moment you drive it, it is used. There’s a scuff on the tire. A fingerprint on the door handle.

We all drive used cars, but… we want those cars to look as new as possible for as long as possible. Well, there are way to do just that – clever little secrets that extend the life of your car. Not just so that it keeps driving once it looks like it’s been through a WWF match with a T-Rex, but so that it stays young.

Remember that new car smell? That shiny sheen across everything (except maybe the cloth seats)? Remember how it felt to drive your brand new car?

My how those cars do age. But they don’t have to. A car might grow old, might become used, but it doesn’t have to feel old, used or abused. It doesn’t have to look old. It doesn’t have to moan and groan and make it quite clear to us that it’s seen better days.

Everything ages. Yes, I’m talking to you. You know exactly what I mean. I’m talking about gravity. I’m talking about wear and tear. I’m talking about the relentless march of the sands of time. You can’t escape it. Your children can’t escape it. Nor your pets. Nor your house. Not even your car…sooner or later a new car becomes a used car.

But you can get a make-over. You can use high-quality creams to keep your skin young. You can maintain your house.

And you can keep your car looking…fabulous!

Every woman seeks beauty secrets to keep her skin soft and supple, to stave off the effects of gravity and time. Cars deserve the same attention, so we would like to share with you a few clever little tricks to keep you in a shiny, youthful car longer. Indeed, these tips will also be quite profitable in the long run, because when you go to sell the car later on, it will sell for a higher price.

So sit back, suck up that new car smell and see which of these tips you’ll put to use today.

ALWAYS USE PROTECTION

After shampooing your fabric seats and floor mats, spray fabric protection on them and leave the car doors open or the windows down to allow proper drying. This keeps stains and dirt to a minimum, and will make it easier in the future to keep them clean. It will go a long way to preserving the interior of your vehicle.

TENNIS BALL TRAILER HITCH COVERS

Let’s start small… One of the best ways to keep rust from accumulating on your chrome trailer hitch is to take a tennis ball, cut a slit in it and slide over the ball of the trailer hitch. . We always wondered why dogs like to chase cars… now we know.

* This can also help protect you from getting sued by that angry-looking guy over there who just smashed his shin into your trailer hitch while walking past your vehicle in the parking lot

CLEAN BIRD DROPPINGS

“Don’t park under trees or places where birds hang out.” That’s great advice for the, ah, obvious reason. But also did you know that tree sap is bad for the finish of your car? Yes, yes, so are bird droppings. So get them off as soon as you can.

PREVENT CRACKED DASHBOARDS

ArmorAll the heck out of the dashboard and any other plastic type of materials in your car that will be exposed to the sun. ArmorAll is like those fancy skin creams some people use on their face to reduce cracking, wrinkles and other signs of age. It will protect it from fading and keep the plastic from cracking.

KEEP DE-ICER SPRAY HANDY

If you live in the cold white north, especially in the dead of winter, you should always carry a bottle of De-Icer spray with you. Yes, I know you know that…but do you do it? De-Icer will help you get into those frozen locks, but if you forget to close that sunroof you are going to need a little more help. De-icer is a lot easier on your locks, and occasionally other crevices, than a screwdriver. Or a blowtorch.

(Just making sure you’re still paying attention.)

This is just a short sampling of the many used car beauty tips and tactics you can employ to keep you vehicle looking, smelling and running like new. There are plenty more in this car tips book, a free download for anyone who wants it. Download a copy for yourself. Share with a friend. Blog about it. Share it on FaceBook or Twitter. Spread the word…there is hope yet for aging cars!
