Check Transmission.
On August was going to the dealers to get my right mirror fixed. The top mount was broken by a Michigan pothole. !0 miles from the dealer in Cement City, MI. the check transmission screen appeared. As I was close to the dealer I kept going. I just made it there and that was as far as it would go. They pushed into the service area and noticed the drive belt was shredded. Said the would check it out the following Saturday.
What they found was the bolts holding the front drive pulley had come loose and the spline was worn down. This caused the pulley to wobble and shred the belt. Said it would take two days to fix once the parts come in. They also said they were working on one with the same problem that came in the day before I did. Both are 2013 RTs.
Just wondering if any others with 2013 have had this happen.

No reason for bolts coming loose/
Well I took the Spyder in Aug. 8, 2015. So far the haven't done any thing. They keep saying be ready by end of the week. I check on Saturday and the say ready by end of next week. Just hope I get it back before it starts snowing. The Spyder in ahead of mine had tranny damage and took longer to fix. Dealer only has one tech that can do the work. Can't wait to be a Spyder Rider again.

Finally
Well it is Sept. 12 and I finally got my Spyder back. They found that the shift sensor was destroyed when the belt shredded. Took another week to get part and the tech. was sick for 2 days. Was a cold one hour ride home. Glad it is home though.

I haven't heard of to many pulley problems on the newer models. I mistakenly had thought that was an early model year issue. I did however mark the bolt/pulley with a paint pen a few years ago to be able to keep an eye on it.
