Bombardier Recreational Products, Inc. (BRP) is recalling certain 2015-2019 Can-Am Spyder F3 and RT motorcycles. The front sprocket may be defective and prematurely wear, resulting in a loss of drive power.
A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.
Dealers will perform an interim repair until parts become available. Once parts are available, the front sprocket will be replaced, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 26, 2022. Owners may contact BRP customer service at 1-888-272-9222.

PURCHASED 9/2015, AS OF 11/16/17 HAVE 15,101 MILES. I AM REPLACING MY SECOND REAR SHOCK. THE ORIGINAL SHOCK BROKE AFTER 11 MONTHS, THE REPLACEMENT SHOCK BROKE WITHIN THE LAST 30 DAYS. HAVING TO HAVE A THIRD REAR SHOCK REPLACEMENT. THE WEIGHT LIMIT WAS NEVER EXCEEDED, THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF ABUSE OR NEGLECT. THE SPYDER HAS HAD ALL OF ITS REGULAR MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ON SCHEDULE AND BY A LICENSED BRP/CAN AM REPAIR CENTER. ALL THREE TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED HAS BEEN AFTER LONG-DISTANCE TOURING TRIPS, EACH THAT LASTED 6-8 DAYS AND COVERED BETWEEN 1600-2400 MILES; BASICALLY FROM FLORIDA UP TO NC, VA, AND NORTHERN GA, SPECIFICALLY. WHAT CAUSED ME TO NOTICE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WERE A) THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON WHEN TURNING THE VEHICLE, B) ROUGH RIDING CONDITIONS ON SMOOTH INTERSTATE SURFACES, AND C) EXTREME "BOUNCING" GOING ACROSS ROAD LEVELS.
