Example complaints

“We were riding Utah when the bike lost power in the mountains. The throttle was dead. Turning it did nothing. All electrical was working. I had to stop on the road and when the bike downshifted automatically to 1st gear the bike was idling and the throttle would respond. It did this again about 10 miles later. I took it to a Can Am dealer and they checked the computer and there was no codes showing. I rode for about 400 miles and the bike lost power at 60 mph with the cruise control set. The throttle did not respond to turning it. …”
