NHTSA Complaint #10289638 — 2008 CAN-AM SPYDER RS

I WAS RIDING MY 2008 CAN-AM SPYDER ROADSTER ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 70MPH WHEN I NOTICED THAT IT BEGAN DRIFTING INTO THE NEXT LANE ALL ON ITS OWN, WHEN I TRIED TO CORRECT BACK INTO MY LANE THE STEERING FELT STUCK AND WHEN I PULLED HARDER TO CORRECT IT THEN IT WOULD SUDDENLY OVERCORRECT AND SHOOT OVER INTO THE LANE ON THE OTHER SIDE. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND AS I SLOWED TO MERGE ONTO ANOTHER HIGHWAY I HEARD A LOUD POPPING SOUND AND THE FRONT WHEELS STARTED TURNING LEFT AND RIGHT ALL BY THEMSELVES AND CLICKING AND POPPING. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AND GET IT OUT OF HEAVY TRAFFIC AND OFF OF THE ROAD. I HAD LITTLE TO NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE'S TRAVEL DIRECTION. THE CONSOLE SHOWED NO ERRORS OR CODES. THE STEERING CONTINUED TO ACT THIS WAY THE ENTIRE TIME I WAS EASING DOWN THE EMERGENCY LANE AND EXITING THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE TOWED THE BIKE TO THE DEALER AND THEY ARE IN THE PROCESS OF DIAGNOSING THE PROBLEM. *TR
