    Sorry to hear your are having issues with the brakes. Suggest you start a case with BRPcare.

    Dealer wanting to return a unrepaired machine does not sound right. Let us know what happens.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    Default Sorry to hear....

    Your dealer is in need of some qualified staff. I have never heard of a shop returning a vehicle unrepaired. If they are using buds they should not be having any problems unless they messed something up. I would get in touch with brp and open a case and have them get you going...

    Time to find a new service provider. Some people should not be allowed to use tools.

    Just what exactly have they been doing with it for 5 weeks? I'd be furious especially since they've had it for most of your riding season.

    Unhappy Lawsuit!

    Take it back, promptly crash it into their shop, sue for millions! Buy new Spyder from a good dealer. Problem solved!!!
