“Riding on a two lane residential street when without any warning the steering pulled hard to the left and took me into the oncoming lane. Had a oncoming car been coming in my direction I would have hit it head on at approximately a 30 degree angle. This happened so fast and I was trying to counter steer back into my lane and almost flipped when the steering released. I had this same problem with a 2008 can am spyder. This problem was supposed to be fixed according to brp, but it is still happening. …”
