Doo-recall

10-22-2007, 10:53 PM

For you Canadians that bought one in States, and have no warranty or coverage on recalls this is ouch. Looks like the french canadians got the consumer by the balls again.

Model: SUMMIT EVEREST 154 800R
Affected Year(s): 2008
Units Affected: 1155
TC Recall #: 2007328
Manufacturer:

Make: SKI-DOO
Model: SUMMIT EVEREST 154 800R
Affected Year(s): 2008
Units Affected: 609
TC Recall #: 2007329
Manufacturer:
Campaign Code:

Recall Details
On certain snowmobiles, if the throttle cable's adjustment is screwed completely down in the carburetor bracket, the end of the cable may eventually interfere with the carburetor lever mechanism. If this were to happen, the throttle cable's end could interfere with the throttle lever and, in some cases, prevent the throttle lever from returning freely to idle position. This could result in a loss of speed control causing a crash with injury or death. Correction: Dealers will adjust/bend the carburetor's lever mechanism to allow appropriate clearance

I could be wrong but my guess is that they will be legally bound to repair the machines since those are definitely major safety concerns, even if purchased south of the border. The problem comes in that the dealers up here will probably make you wait until january before they can get you in.

Yeah I'm with Steve I think they would have to fix it reguardless where you bought, It is a maufactures problem and that would come with liabilities I do not think they would want a lawsuit........now find a dealer to do it for you thats a different problem

MtnCrazy · 10-23-2007, 03:19 PM

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you don't need warranty for a recall. It's a manufacturers defect and they are bound by law to fix the problem. I just went through this with our SUV. It's 6 years old and have no warranty left, but ford sent me a recall letter and had to fix it with no CHARGE to us. My two cents...

POWDERCHOWDER · 10-23-2007, 04:18 PM

That Is A Very True Statement I Agree.

Just so you know, ken at mrrsltd.com will warranty sleds bought in the USA under there terms, great guy to deal with and him honoring warranties, it shows what a cool cat he is...

Shredder · 10-23-2007, 06:08 PM

I would hope BRP will be forced to do the recalls. But I agree that the sleds bought in the USA will be the last sleds they get to.
