Well he is 12-14ft and I do not think his 2, 8-10ft brothers or his 10 ft girlfriend would be amused. He bellows like a bull ( bovine) and vibrates my house sometimes.:shocked:

It sounds as if his family re-unions are very memorable... :shocked:

 

[MidTNDawg]

It becomes very clear

:gaah:....Dave , I'm with you on this one ......Here is a short answer, Dealers may not be Happy if you don't buy from them because ............"THEY MAKE APPROX.$ 4000 TO $ 6000 + IN EACH NEW SPYDER " they sell..................MSRP, is a joke .....Mikeguyver :thumbup:

you do not even have a clue on unit profit at a dealership. Just one thought, have you ever thought of overhead?

Problem is everybody wants to say how great the 14's are, but in reality there's been nothing but problems- brakes, oil leaks, clutch, tires, rear shock, ignition, alignment, loose bolts, fuel pumps, etc. The list goes on , most of it should be corrected by BRP and you would think they would have cleaned it up by now. The rest is due to a bad delivery at dealer by undertrained techs. Should not be swept under the rug like it's no big deal.

 

[The-BigDog-30]

Yes I have a workable answer Bob just like at Spyder fest or OE they have at least 1 BRP trained (and paid by BRP not the dealer) tech at each dealership that sells their products. He can give real time feedback to headquarters and accurate answers to customers. Obviously this may cost them money but they may be able to rotate them around 1 week at a time. For example we have 5 dealers in SC assign at least 2 regional techs that spend at least 1 week a month at each one of them. I am sure the dealers are up for free tech work. The dealers could advertise what weeks they will be in town. It is up to BRP to restore confidence not dealers who could care less. Most OEM vehicle builders have regional reps.

Love this idea, just keep rotating them, maybe they could train the techs while they're there, since most dealer techs do there training on the internet.

Agree! No more or less problems than before really......However, All the 14' owners are just happy they can putter around at near idle, get a bit better gas mileage, and not feel any heat off the motor.

Not really my thing, but I get it....

Sounds like a random problem. May be that someone on the assembly line had some bad days. Maybe didn't think they needed to use the locktite promoter or they were not applying enough locktite, who knows.

No one is saying this is ideal nor is anyone making excuses for BRP. Everyone agrees that every new Spyder should be perfect. Still, the fact is that we know they aren't all going to be perfect.

On a scale of 1-10, this is about a 1/2 . Once it is fixed you should never have any more issues. Your future is very bright!

Planning on checking mine. Sad thing is, was at the dealer for service on Thursday and this never showed up on the recall checks. Will check my VIN number to see what mine it!

WELL.WELL.WELL
