Fuel Pump - Potential Loss of Propulsion

 

Dear Can-Am® Vehicle Owner,

 

Following the previous notice issued in December 2023, this updated notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act. BRP has decided that a defect related to motor vehicle safety exists in the following vehicles. As a result, BRP is conducting a safety recall. This updated notice is to inform you that the parts for the repair are now available.

 

Our records show that you own a potentially affected vehicle.

 

What is the potential problem?

The fuel pump impeller could swell and cause the fuel pump to stop working. This could lead to an engine stall while driving without the ability to restart the vehicle. This situation may increase the risk of a crash.

 

Which models are involved?

Fuel pumps installed in production on some Model Year 2021 and 2022 Can-Am Ryker

Some fuel pumps sold in service that may have been installed on Model Year 2019 to 2024 Can-Am Ryker. Possible impacted part numbers include:

  • 709 000 810 

  • 548 874 036 

  • 709 001 261 

  • 219 800 529

 

What will BRP do?

BRP will inspect and, if necessary, replace the fuel pump at no charge to you (parts and labor). The procedure should take less than two hours. Parts for the repair are now available.

 

What should YOU do?

Schedule an appointment with any authorized BRP Can-Am dealer to have the safety recall repair performed on your vehicle. To find a dealer, see the end of this letter.

In the case of an engine stall, you will maintain steering and braking (including the Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS)), but you will not be able to maintain your speed. You will not have all the functionalities of the Vehicle Stability System (VSS). You might be unable to restart the vehicle. 

 

If you leased this vehicle:

  • Send a copy of this letter to the lessee within ten working days after the day you received this letter.

  • Do the same with any future letters about this safety recall.

 

What to do if you feel you have received this notice by mistake?

This notice was mailed to you according to the most current information we have available.

If you know the current owner or operator, please forward this letter to them.

If there has been a change of ownership or you have a change of address, please notify BRP so we can update our records accordingly.

 

What to do if repairs were performed prior to recall?

If you have already paid to have your vehicle repaired for this issue, please contact BRP Customer Service. Our team will evaluate if you are eligible for reimbursement of the repair costs. Your vehicle will still need to have the safety recall performed.
