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 26 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.
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.
