Clarification on the Transport Canada safety recall on 2013 Spyder RT and ST

[shelbydave]

Since a recall has been issued in Canada, and there is an apparent "fix" for the issue, would it not be in the best interest - Public Relations wise - to be proactive, and offer the fix, or initiate the recall in other countries?

Hi Shelbydave,

In the original message, we mention that the fix is already under evaluation at NHTSA in the United States.

Ahh... so it's more a matter of getting them to approve the fix? Gotta love government... they make everything better!!

I see I got no response on the other heat shielding issues including the one sheild that was removed on the 2013 in front of the gas tank/ console area that people have shown pictures of on other years. I hope BRP addresses the overheated gas tank in the same way. Gas caps that are almost too hot to touch are NOT a good thing.

Glad to hear that information about fixing a common complaint has been posted and that an official solution for those of us in the US is not far off.

Thank you BRP.

I always leave the "I'm here to help" part...

...and in Europe?

Please tell me that VOSA (Vehicle & Operator Services Agency) in the UK has been contacted about this fire safety recall.
