NHTSA Complaint #11414275 — 2014 CAN-AM SPYDER RT

MOTOR CYCLE WAS STORED IN GARAGE OVER WINTER IN CHICAGO AREA. STARTED IT UP ON FIRST DAY IN 80 DEGREES AND GETTING CODES P0552 AND P0551. THE BIKE DISPLAYS THE HANDEL BARS ON DISPLAY. RESEARCH SHOWS PROBLEM WITH DO'S WHICH IS A STEERING ASSIST UNIT. BRP (MANUFACTURE) OF THE MOTORCYCLE HAD HAD PRIOR RECALLS ON THE SAME UNIT IN PRIOR YEARS. MANY PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET HAVING SAME ISSUE THAT RESULTS IN 2000.00 DOLLAR REPAIR. BIKE STILL RUNS BUT YOU CAN FEEL STEERING IS HARDER. ALTHOUGH THE BIKE IS A 2014 I ONLY PUT A FEW THOUSAND MILES EACH SUMMER DRIVING IT LOCAL. A BIKE WITH JUST OVER 10K MIES SHOULD NOT POP A TWO THOUSAND DOLLAR REPAIR SITTING IN STORAGE. I SEE THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT IMPACTS YOUR ABILITY TO STEER AND AVOID ROAD SIDE INCIDENTS AND DISTRACTED DRIVERS. I ALWAYS HAVE MY WIFE ON THE BIKE AND BOUGHT A THREE WHEEL UNIT TO GIVE BOTH OF US MORE OF A SAFE RIDE. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOU LOOKING INTO THIS ISSUE.
