Bombardier has issued a recall for a some 2010 Can Am Spyder Roadsters for a problem related to a wiring connector improperly fastened. Please read the details below.

Manufacturer: Bombardier Recreational Products Inc.
Models affected:
2010 CAN-AM / Roadster Spyder RT SE5
2010 CAN-AM / Roadster Spyder RT SM5
NHTSA Campaign Number: 09V473000
Potential Units Affected: 108
Problem: Bombardier Recreational Products, Inc. (BRP) is recalling model year 2010 Roadster Spyder RT SM5 and SE5 motorcycles manufactured between October 13 and October 30, 2009. The connector on the key switch harness may not be locked and the ignition switch harness may be routed too tight. In some situations, the connector may unplug. If this occurs, the vehicle may stall without warning and could potentially cause a crash.

Corrective Action: BRP will notify owners and authorized dealers will inspect to ensure that the connector is locked and that the ignition switch harness is not routed too tight and correct the harness if needed free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin on or about December 18, 2009. Owners may contact BRP at 1-888-638-5397 or 1-819-566-3366.

    This sheds a little light on production volume. Between October 13th and the 30th (13 days) they produced at least 108 Spyders. I wonder if they had all been sold by now or if the dealers are mostly inspecting units on showroom floors.

    Good thing Bombardier is still supported by Canadian taxpayers to continue building these recreational vehicles. A private company would have some serious explaining to do to shareholders.
    For the price I would rather buy a sports convertible.

    It looks like these will be the demo models that their dealers have. BRP is saying late Dec or early Jan (more likely) on consumer deliveries.
