Everybody check the gas lines on your Spyders for possible rubbing points. Most likely just a coincidence but you never know. It's a place to start. These fires have to be fuel fed or electrical don't they?

BRP has had a few of this kind of recall in the past. Not sure if any electrical is needed, but the fires on Spyders we have seen for sure had to have fuel to burn so fast.

I don't know if I'd connect the two, don't you think they would have learned from the sled incidents ?? :dontknow:

For some it takes more than once to learn.

I hope not. Time will tell.

I'm with you. I do not want to see my favorite toy go down in flames!

+1 The company I work for goes through bouts of this too. They make the same mistake implementing new equipment across 5 different plants 5 times in a row. :sour:

Is that the old GM or the new GM?

:dontknow: I won't know how the new GM operates until I report to work the first of August. Thats the first day, I think, that they will be out of the government assisted bankruptcy. :gaah: Still might not know 100% as I understand that half our facility is part of the "good" GM and half is part of the "bad" GM.
