Would segregating between RT and rs make sense for this Poll?

My choice would be between number two and three. The radio system had to be replaced and the rear air shock thing was defective and BEST didn't cover it's replacement at $400! Other than that, it's been good.

Hmmm. I consider normal wear and tear to be synonymous with trouble free.
So... trouble free for me!

John, my rear airbag got replaced by BEST no charge because it had a tear...

Have had both of my cables for the truck and seat fail on me, and the cables aren't covered under warrenty. Luckily they're only $26.

I get the occasional DPS error, but a quick reset of the computer resolves it, and I'll get another 1000 miles trouble free.

Just a question, Does trouble free mean you had some problems but they were covered under warranty?
So if you didn't have to pay to fix it, That's considered trouble free...??

Hope trouble free means just what it says.......otherwise we checked the wrong box.
Identify what you have control over and find peace with what you don't.

My RT has been trouble free except for the known DPS and throttle body issues. In each case, they were quickly resolved by my dealer and Cowtown (throttle body died at SF last year). Yes, there was a few hours of downtime but used that to visit the vendors.

Thanks to everyone who has participated in the quality surveys 1 and 2 so far. I have been on egg shells as to how it would be received. Thanks for your objectivity.
How can Spyderlovers collectively improve the Dealer side of of a new Spyder purchase? As has been said over and over, exceptional customer service and skilled technicians make or break the deal.
How can BRP improve the supply side of the manufacturing process and assure a trouble free machine out the door?
I suggest a sort of two part check list that requires both BRP and any dealer regardless of its technician's skill levels complete it before the Spyder will even start much less leave the lot.
In a few hours I'm going to hopefully test ride a new ST-SE5.

I do know that several things trigger a customer satisfaction survey emailed to you from BRP... I hope they read them.

Thank you Roger Rattigan Reagan. lol
You're faith in the illusion of the free market system is inspiring.
In my area the biggest dealer has the worst service. Frankly that has been my experience almost everywhere with everything. Sales drives the marketplace not service and since service is still almost entirely in the hands of dealers only it is clearly secondary to sales.
I'd vote a solid 3.

The local Honda dealer service sucks so all the GoldWing guys buy from other dealers... silly farmers still buy 4 wheelers from him so his lot is full of 4 wheelers.
