13CAN-AM year and model combinations have enough on file to be worth a page here, and between them their owners have filed 383 safety complaints with NHTSA. More of those name the fuel and propulsion system than any other system: 110 of them. The single most complained-about is the 2013 Spyder RT, with 102.

NHTSA holds 25 recall campaigns naming CAN-AM vehicles, across every model year the agency records rather than only the ones shown here. A death has been reported in 1 of these 13 vehicles.

Most complained-about CAN-AM models

Complaints for every published model year of each model added together. A model that sold in larger numbers collects more complaints, and nothing here divides by sales because NHTSA does not publish them.

Model Worst year Complaints Deaths
Spyder RT 2013 217 1
Ryker 2019 123
Spyder ST 2013 21
Spyder F3 2018 14
Spyder RS 2010 8

What goes wrong on a CAN-AM

The systems named most often across every CAN-AM complaint on file. One complaint can name more than one system, so these add up to more than the complaint total. "Unknown or other" is excluded: it is what the intake form records when an owner cannot place the failure.

Most recent CAN-AM recalls

The newest campaigns naming a CAN-AM, by the date the manufacturer's defect report reached NHTSA. Each one covers a build range, which may be narrower than the model years listed.
