What owners reported
Newest filingsTHE TURN SIGNAL FUNCTION DOES NOT OPERATE CORRECTLY. THE SWITCH DOES WORK ON A 45 TO 90 DEGREE TURN HOWEVER IF YOU ARE DRIVING ON A TWO LANE MOTORWAY AND WANT TO SIGNAL TO CHANGE LANES I CAN NOT GET THE SWITCH TO CANCEL OUT. IT DOES NOT CANCEL. MOTORISTS AROUND YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOUR INTENDING TO DO SINCE IT IS SIGNALING LEFT OR RIGHT AS YOU TRY TO GET IT TO CANCEL. DURING THIS PERIOD YOU ARE NOT GIVING 100 PERCENT ATTENTION TO THE TRAFFIC AROUND YOU. THIS CONFUSION OF MOTORISTS AROUND YOU PRESENTS A FURTHER HAZARDOUS SITUATION. THIS SWITCH IS FAULTY. CAN AM SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THEM. HOPEFULLY REPLACING WITH A BETTER DESIGN. I BOUGHT THE CAN AM USED FROM A PERSON AND THIS IS MY FINDINGS AS THE SECOND OWNER

Reading this record
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.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
