Example complaints

Electrical system: “I brought vehicle in for 30k service on 01/20/17. The tech found that the gas tank was energized by electricity. Upon diagnosis they found the sharp seam on the bottom of the tank cut through the main wiring harness insulation to the bare wires energizing the tank and creating a potential fire hazard that could have been catastrophic.”

NHTSA complaint #10245153, filed 2008-10, 350 miles

Fuel system: “2009 Victory Vision motorcycle. Dfu july 09 since day one, heavy fuel smell, vapors. Found lots of others on the internet making the same complaint. Finally, the servicing dealer agreed to order a new designed fuel cap for me. I found this to be a common remedy on the internet and told them. Now 90 days later, no fuel cap. He said he can't get it. I called polaris customer service, and they acted totally uninformed, and gave me the run around, sending me back to the dealer for resolution. They kept wanting to get off the phone and have me research the new fuel cap part number. …”
