CAN-AM Complaints

I reached out to dealer ship and manufacture of my unit, explain to them that my unit has a serious wobble and shuddering skip while making turns in curves. I feel like it about to throw from the unit when it does this. I was told it was a yaw sensors. They would then tell me my bike is fine but it an ongoing issue that they refuse to look into

I was driving on the interstate at 65 mph. I felt a bump and realized my right front wheel had fallen off and I was riding on the rotor. I applied brake lightly to come to a stop and noticed the only thing holding the rotor on was the brake pads. If I had not applied the brakes, the rotor would have fallen off, the axle would have dug into the pavement and possibly flipped the bike. I was not able to locate the wheel. The bike is at a dealership and have received a quote for repair. My insurance adjuster will look at it in a couple days. I noticed no warning signs, no shaking of the handle bars, no message from the bike prior to the incident.

When making left hand turns the rear brake and front right surges on its own making it hard to control the vehicle. BRP knows the issue and has a TSB on it but the fix is a bandaid. The problem is the bearing failures that keep occurring in the pitman arm due to poor design, but BRP is saying this isn’t happening, even though it is a major complaint on the BRP Ryker forms. BRP TSB number # 137209
