I know this relates to 2017 but I recently purchased a new fuel filter and now I'm wondering if it could be one of the faulty ones. Do we know the part number of the bad filter?

Mow, THAT is a thought! A good possibility. It sounds like they had a run of them that weren't right. I *think* that it would be the same part number, but a sublot number that only BRP is privy to. Otherwise, how can they tell what byke is effected and which is not. Bet they changed manufacturers and found they were substandard after the fact. We'll probably know the full story.

The filter maybe the same part number by BRP but the date code or manufacturer number/production code is most likely what they will go by

The fuel filter is the same part number for a good or bad one. Walbro has been the supplier for Spyder fuel filters from the beginning. It looks like they had a bad day. Check the Warranty Bulletin again. It's not a part number to look for, it is a date code. Filters made on that day are the suspect ones.
PS If I am reading the date code correctly. That would be January 30, 2017. For those wondering that's a Monday.
