Front belt sprocket failure - any other 'common' failures?

[cravenfun]

Wife's new to her '15 F3 S the inner splines on the front belt sprocket tore out completely. Dead in the water, up hill push to get it off the road as no shoulder spot with guard rail.
Only on her 2nd ride so she hopped on with me to go home and get a trailer. Dealer had it done quickly, new white sprocket installed and good to go. Dealer said the original sprockets were a weaker metal than the new white one and has seen a few fail.
22k miles on it BTW.
New Spyder owner so not familiar with normal sounds but it's quieter now, it must have been on it's last legs when we got it.

Pretty common failure on the 2015 F3.

Fate would have it I'm currently at 21,500 with my 2015 F3 sm6. I did take the bolt off at 10'000 and everything looked OK so I torgued the New Bolt about 10 pounds more than the original. We had to do that with the 2009 GS model. I have a Sprocket and bolt ready and as long as I'm within 35 miles AMNA will tow me home free.

Any other ''common'' things to fail ?
This forum has a ton of experience, I'm a gearhead so the more I know the more I'm prepared. I am on several vehicle forums and contribute when I can.
I've been reading tons of posts on here trying the absorb as much as I can. I'm a seasoned citizen and my first bike was a '74 CB350 and that spread the infection.
TIA

D.E.S.S. Module is the only other failure I've had trouble with. Digitally Encoded Security System. Difficulty reading your keys prevents the Spyder from starting. Dealer should have Can Am procedure for replacement.

Are you saying .... some teeth on the front sprocket broke off or wore off ???? ....( I am well aware of the shaft / sprocket " FRETTING " issue ) if so this is first report of this occurring that I;ve heard of ( here since 2012 and I read 98% of all new threads ) ..... Thanks

Internal splines of the sprocket, the ones that lock it onto the trans. output shaft, spun right out. He showed me the old sprocket. Only way you could tell it was splined was a small edge left on the bolt side.
I could see ''red dust'' in the area after I got it home from the repair.
I didn't look it over before taking it in, was PO'ed since it had less than 100 miles on it from purchase.
Dealer did me right, didn't even charge me for a oil filter I wanted for winter storage prep. .

I'm familiar with DESS issues on my Ski Doo's, same technology, on the sleds they just use a snap on cap that is tethered like the Sea Doo's.
Thanks

Thank you for this info ....... What occurred to your Sprocket was directly re-lated to the " Fretting " issue .... which developed on the 15 and later Spyders .... more so on the " F-3's " ...... good luck .... Mike
