The contact owns a 2020 Can-Am Spyder F3. The contact stated that while attempting the accelerate from a stop light, the motorcycle lost automotive power and failed to drive forward. The motorcycle was later towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the front sprocket pulley was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 21,300.
Spyder f3 7000 miles.. semi automatic transmission or paddle shifter is my problem and concern.. it has gone from 25% of the time to 80% of the time as it will not allow me to manually downshift the gearbox, causing me to slow down from 60 plus mph in 6th gear to 34 mph at which point it down shifts automatically, i cant stress the importance of being able to downshift when in traffic or the need to speed up to avoid hazards or slower cars.. also when this happens i cannot put the 1000 pound bike into reverse, causing me to manually push it backwards..3 back surguries i am not exactly physically able to do.. please let BRP know this needs their attention.. it has been to the shop but they said it wasnt doing this for them, yes they are liars, it doesnt throw a problem code to their computer therfore they dont know how to fix it, does that make sense? i need some answers and am going to be talking to BRP directly.. please keep me safe..

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
