New Brake Failure

[jimcrom]

Just turned 24,000 miles and received an error code of brake failure. This is the second time this happened. The first time it happened at 15,000 miles, I was able to add brake fluid and that fixed the problem. This time it didn't work. Had a mechanic look at the brakes and the pads appear to be fine. Took it to the dealer who said that after bleeding the brakes it was not holding the pressure but there is no indication of a leak. They are now going to order a new brake cylinder.
I hate not being able to ride in the nice weather. So far, rebuilt engine-eight weeks, new sprocket-11 weeks and now a brake problem-one week and counting.:gaah:

There is something wrong with BRP parts distrubition and their warehouse system, IT"S NOT WORKING. The motorcycle is only as good as it's ability to have parts to keep them running. I'm waiting for a backrest for my 2011 RSS two months and screws that took over a week. Do like me write a letter and let them know how you feel. That's IMHO.

Brake Failure

Yesterday I had a brake failure warning on my 2011 RT. Only 4400 miles. I am curious how it will be handled.:spyder2:

Check your brake fluid level. It is the most common cause.
