    Default Issuing a complaint, electroincally, to BRP

    I am having strong smells of gas from my 2013. I am very much aware of the problem they have had with others complaining of this issue and some catching on fire.
    However, I have had not success in BRP responding to my previous emails. Is there a way to get them recognize my complaint and put it on record. Please share this info with me, as obviously I might be doing something incorrectly. Thanks for you help.

    E-mail does not seem to work. BRP seems to not like putting anything in writing that can be passed around. An actual call to the help line seems to work better. They will assign you a case #, etc. I don't have the number--but I am sure someone will put it up quickly for you.

    No... those two didn't upset the apple cart; it was the first eight that might have done it!

    Bob,

    Her name is spelled: Chrystelle Lachance

    That maybe why the email didn't work.

    I contacted BRP Customer Care a few months back and got a response within 24 hours. Keep in mind that there is a person who has to look at your email. I would keep it polite and stick to the facts and I would also keep emotions out of the email.

    I would think you need to start at the dealership level..They should get first crack at it...May be something simple...
