• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

ONE yearago today...

Thanks to everyone for your replies and concerns. To answer some people, I have contacted BRP, past and present. I've been told that there is nothing they can do about a dealer because they are owned and operated independently
from BRP and they have no say over the dealership. At this point in time I haven't got any satisfaction from either, just giving up.

I think that I see your problem. I did you use "World of Powersports"? I did a search for dealers near you to see who you are dealing with and the first three dealerships that come up are all the same dealership "World of Powersports". Looks to me that they have a monopoly in the area and probably don't care how they treat their customers because they have a captive audience. :mad: BRP, you listening???

First Timer, have you ever talked with "BoilerAnimal" here on the forum? Is listed as living in Central Illinois he might be of some help with your dealer problems.

PS I was born in Peoria and raised in Washington:doorag:

Yes Sir. World of Power Sports has 3 dealerships. 1 in Decatur,IL the original dealership. They have opened 2 more over the last couple of years. 1 here in Peoria, IL and the other in Bloomington, IL.

I too grew up in Peoria. Served as a City of Peoria Fire Fighter for 33years before I retired as the Assistant Fire Chief 7 years ago now. just enjoying the ride now.:thumbup:
 
Just a little side comment... BRP says they have no control over their independent dealers....right up to the point of what tires they are installing!!!!! Very sorry to see such poor service create so much bad will. You deserve better. Good luck where ever you land.
 
Up date today. Just heard from my dealer. Parking park was frozen, had to take motor off and cleaned now it works. Some good news. The other electrical issues, the part that BRP said to replace didn't fix the problem.
On phone again now with a Tech from BRP trying to figure out what to do next.:shocked: Doesn't look like I'll have it back by this week now.:opps:
I'd switch dealers but the only dealer is World of Power Sports in my area. Their 3 dealerships are the closets to me with out driving or trailering the Spyder some where else.
 
Doesn't sound like it's an option.....but we drive 1 and a half hours out of our way to ensure we deal with a professional dealership....so sad!!!!!!

We luv our spyders!
 
Well, picked up my Spyder Saturday morning past after being in the shop for a total of 57 days. Enough said on that issue. The wife and I rode it over the weekend and I have rode the last two days also. NO issues so far, it appears that they got all the issues fixed correctly. As far as selling, that issue is up in the air as to whether or not I will or not. Only time will tell.
