Service Bulletin

[bluestratos]

My tag is lost so my dealer is contacting BRP to see what else can be done. Any one know exactly why the key is getting stuck? Good friends of mine just ran into this with the 2014. The key would not go in at first then it was difficult to get out but she kept working at it and got it to work.

On my 2011 the key would not go all the way in once and it was a bear to get back out once. I was near a parts store so I bought lock lubricant it fixed and kept it going for the next 2 years until I traded it in.

was at dealer again today to pick up something and the service manager said he looked everything up and called BRP and basically this is for ALL 2014'a

yes, he said ALL 2014's need the ignition switch and rear trunk lock replaced......:banghead:

He is incorrect. It only needs to be replaced if your key tag falls in the range.

I also like Model A Fords

I learned to drive in a Model A...I love them

but I much prefer my 1930 Dodge Bros. Model DA Deluxe. However at 9-10 mpg I really do not drive it a lot. But they (DB's) were / are very nice cars.

ok, will have him check it again -maybe he was just confused when reading it....

Hello Guys. I am seeing a lot of talk about this bulletin on the thread. I want to be clear as a dealer, it is effecting all models, RT, ST and RS. I have seen people say it is from this Vin to this Vin only giving a small 6-7 unit range. The list of models and Vin range is several pages long with lots of Vin ranges. So please contact your dealer and have them run the Vin number to have yours inspected. Granted it might not be every single bike, but it is a good chunk of them on all three platforms that BRP has advised be checked. Please have it updated if needed so your not stranded. Good Ryding!

2014 only? Or does it go back to previous years?

This is a 2014 only...
Remember; they changed the keys this year... :shocked:

Mine is not on the list. Looks like I dodged this one. On my way to Nevada on Monday.

 

[PaSpyderRyder]

Just got back from my dealer and while the key tag is on the list for the service bulletin my VIN is not so they have to call BRP and find out if they are going to cover mine, mine is getting so bad that I'm afraid to take the key out of the ignition because i'm not sure if I'll be able to get it in the next time. Also having an issue with the Left hand switch housing were you can not us the left button when trying to do something with the settings like setting the time on the clock.

Bob

Well my dealer called today and said BRP is covering mine under the service bulletin, I'm glade BRP is covering.

It goes to the dealer on Thursday. Do you get a new trailer cylinder as well or are we SOL?

You get a whole new kit which includes the ignition, tumbler for the rear luggage and extra tumbler for the trailer as well!

Artful dodger

Mine is not on the list. Looks like I dodged this one. On my way to Nevada on Monday.

We dodged this one too. Either never got or threw away the plastic tab - never knew it was important :banghead: But my dealer contacted BRP for further info and got this reply:

"Keep in mind that the failure of the key switch is due to the key staying stuck or not turning. Without the key code, you can insert/remove the key numerous times and try to turn it on/Off. If there is an instance where it doesn't turn or you are unable to remove it, replace the ignition switch. If you do this several times and in no instance does it stay stuck or not turn, don't replace it.
The key code is stamped into the ignition switch but its removal is necessary to see it.

BRP found a way to tell the key code by looking at the key, this may be a bit more challenging but a solution.

If you are able to insert, turn, and remove your key multiple times without an issue then you should be good to go! Sounds like the few units that have experienced this failure had the failure happen fairly quickly."

Sooo........we're good to go :clap:
