Bulletin Summary

Polaris has identified a quality issue affecting a small number of Slingshot mufflers, where insufficient penetration of muffler plug welds weakens the muffler wall, making it susceptible to fatigue failure. The first mode of failure is a loosening of the wall, distinguishable by a rattle during normal engine operation. If left unrepaired for an extended period of time, a hole may form in the muffler wall resulting in noticeably higher noise levels.

About Technical Service Bulletins

A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
