Example complaints

Body and structure: “Regarding polaris/Victory recall campaign 13e-048 that Victory issued in august of 2013: the official letter came out in the spring of 2013 and stated that parts will be available after april 2013, I have called my dealership every week since may of 2013 to see when parts will be available. They continue to tell me that Victory has moved up the shipping dates of the particular two parts (chrome lock-n-go backrest and chrome lock-n-go luggage rack) that I am having to replace. I have placed two phone calls to Victory customer service and always get a run around. …”

Equipment: “The contact owns a 2011 Victory Cross Country motorcycle. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH the two pins that hold the saddle bag were loose causing the saddle bag to fall. The dealer who sold him the saddle bag gave him pins to reconnect the saddle bag. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 4,000.”

NHTSA complaint #10402838, filed 2011-05, 4,000 miles

Latches, locks and linkages: “I have a 2011 Victory Cross Country motorcycle. The saddlebag latch on the right side is wearing improperly due to improper alignment. This is a known issue with this motorcycle. My dealer, Victory motorcycles, and polaris have refused to issue a replacement. Without repair, the latch will wear through and the saddlebag lid will not be able to be secured.”

NHTSA complaint #10644692, filed 2014-10, 11,000 miles

Other or unknown: “While driving at highway speed, my right side saddle bag became separated from my motorcycle. There are two quick release pins that came off causing the saddle bag to fall off. This could be a danger to the motorcycle rider as a distraction and is a danger to any motor vehicle traveling behind the motorcycle. This problem has since happened again. After researching this issue with the Victory owners group, I have found that this is a common occurrence amongst Victory owners. Contact to the company and the dealership have been ignored...”
