    I got the letter today as well. There was no mention as to what the fix is. Anyone know? Luckily, I have had no heat issues and done updates to be proactive, so I can wait.

    2013 RT. The exact wording in the letter is "Under very hot ambient conditions and low speed riding, the temperature in the engine compartment may rise and thereby increase the risk of a skin burn or a vehicle fire".

    WOW, seems like everybody, including me got the "Interim Letter" from BRP today. As usual, it tells us next to nothing. I sent an Email on Friday to BRP care asking what the "fix" is for the 2013 RT's, and why all of the secrecy. Guess what....No answer.

    Maybe they don't have a plan yet?

    I can make an assumption, though. Since my Spyder was part of the test last fall there would be no need for BRP to notify me if the fix only consisted of the changes made then.

    And while I admit to being curious myself, even if BRP were to announce that they were replacing a specific part, wouldn't that just lead to more assumptions as to how it would or would not cure the problem even before we saw it in action?

    Then they go on to define 'very hot ambient conditions' as anything over 85 degF. This coming from Valcourt Canada.....

    Yeah, I got my CYA letter too.

    I received my recall letter yesterday also. And the guessing games begin on what the repairs will be and how long they will keep us off the road.

    If they are going to start implementing this fix in May; I hope for the sake of all of the 2013 owners, that they have all of the parts available, and the fix takes little time to install...
