Consumer Description

VEHICLE GETS EXTREMELY HOT TO THE TOUCH ON THE RIGHT SIDE , BLOWS VERY HOT AIR ONTO RIGHT LEG. HEAT TRAVELS UP TO LEG AND UNDER SEAT RIGHT WHERE YOU SIT ON TOP OF TANK. MIDDLE CLOVE DEPARTMENT TO HOT TO TOUCH AS WELL TANK UNDERNEATH. DEALER TOOK COMPLAIN AND WRAPPED PIPES AND INSTALLED HEATSHIELD WHICH DID NOT TAKE CARE OF PROBLEM AND REDIRECTED THE HEAT COMING OUT ON A DIFFERENT ANGLE. BRP REFUSES TO COOPERATE ON ANY MORE SOLUTIONS AND FIX THE PROBLEM. I AM CONCERND THAT THE MOTOR WILL OVER HEAT SINCE THE AIRFLOW AT THE ENGINE HAS REALY NO ESCAPE. *TR
