Our records show that you own a potentially affected vehicle.

Which models are involved?

What should you do?
The final repair is to replace the front sprocket and the sprocket screw. The replacement procedure should take less than an hour.
Due to supply chain limitations, the parts for the final repair will gradually be available in a very limited quantity over an extended time period beginning October 31.

BRP will continue to offer an interim repair procedure. The procedure acts as a temporary solution until the parts for the final repair are available in sufficient quantity. The procedure is available at your dealer now and should take less than an hour.
