Indian Motorcycle Company ROADMASTER in the other registers
This site holds seven national and European registers. Indian Motorcycle Company ROADMASTER is named on 2 European notices. Those are separate campaigns, filed with separate authorities on their own schedules.
The European register
- EU Safety Gate alert A12/0882/16: Indian Motorcycle Company Chief Classic, Chief Darkhorse, Vintage, Chieftain, Chieftain Darkhorse, Springfield And Roadmaster, notified by United Kingdom
- EU Safety Gate alert A12/1796/19: Indian Motorcycle Company Chief, Springfield, Chieftain, Roadmaster, notified by United Kingdom
Nothing here says any of these is this notice in another country. A model recalled in one country is often recalled in another, in different words and at a different time, and the authorities do not cross-reference each other. Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.
