- The defect
- Bombardier Recreational Products (BRP) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Can-Am Spyder F3 and RT motorcycles. The engine output shaft may fatigue and break, resulting in a loss of drive power.
- What it can cause
- A loss of drive power increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- The output shaft will be replaced based on the mileage of the vehicles. Owner notification letters were mailed February 5, 2025. Owners may contact BRP customer service at 1-888-272-9222.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .
How this campaign compares
At 8,721 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 78% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2017 to 2019, so the oldest vehicles on it were 7 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
CAN-AM vehicles have been recalled over the power train 3 times before this, most recently in May 2022 as 22V352000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 5 of the 6 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 44 complaints with NHTSA, 30 of them before this campaign was filed. 22 of those name the power train, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in May 2017, 7 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry one other recall published here: 22V352000 (power train).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Bombardier Recreational Products, Inc. with NHTSA on September 30, 2024 as campaign 24V728000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
