Consumer Description

MY SPYDER GET SO HOT THAT IT IS NOT BEARABLE TO RIDE, EXTREME HEAT FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT SENDS EXTREME HEAT TO MY LEGS AND HEAT COMING FROM THE SEAT. I HAVE SEEN REPORTS ON THIS PARTICULAR SPYDER CATCHING FIRE WHICH MAKE ME VERY UNCOMFORTABLE TO RIDE. BRP IN CANADA NEEDS TO RECALL THEIR SPYDER'S IN REGARDS TO THIS PROBLEM. I CURRENTLY HAVE ABOUT 1,500 MILES. I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS SINCE MARCH 2013 TO PRESENT. THE HEAT ALSO CAUSES THE GASOLINE IN THE TANK TO BOIL WHICH IS A HAZARD ALSO. *TR
