We don't want to hear about easy fixes or what not. People are spending 20 to 30K for a sled and these issues have been going on year after year and it's old. They need to get their shit together.
Just spoke to my dealer outside of Syracuse and no clutches available. If it weren't for this video I wouldn't have even known. Thanks for the info, post.
I'm actually pretty happy about them, because at least they are proactive about it and they are not pretending it's not an issue and letting people pay for them.
Bought a 22 pro 850 and 22 Khaos. Fuel tank fire hazard Handlebar hooks Clutches Brake heating issue. Pretty ridiculous after dropping 45k on a power sport
@@JESSEJAMES322he ordered immediately and received a fraction of his order. Amazingly 2024 snowchecks won’t get shorted once again. Two winters straight im sitting on a stop ride recall waiting for parts while all the new sleds roll out the door. 2022 my snowcheck was delayed to the point I had to find another sled. Hasn’t been the best experience for me yet with Polaris.
I have a vr1 boost. Did the fuel line recall. However I have an oil leak when parked. Quite a bit of oil actually. Not sure if I can ride it? Parts are on back order till February.
I have the oil leak on my boost. Took it in for a preseason and recall today and they said parts to repair the oil leak are back ordered until end of January. Hope this isn’t the case.
Hey thanks for all that good news🙄🙄😂😂,I just put that assault front torque arm in my 137 xc it fits no problem 👍And ir seems like its actually Square unlike my original 👍👍
Can't understand how Polaris is such a good handling sled but, if im burning warranty time and can't ride it, I might as well ride a skidoo with there weird lay down post. Also heard they are replacing the bolt on the p22. Not sure if you mentioned that.
Hi Guys. I bought a new 2023 xcr 136. I love the sled, but the track howl at 40 MPH up is ear-shattering! It's so bad it resonates through your helmet! I took a trip, and by nighttime, my ears rang while lying in bed! Sled is un-ridable like this. I even tried earplugs, and they did nothing because it's a "drone" that can't be escaped. No its not alignment or tension, no its not a bearing, all that's been eliminated. I believe it's just poor design? The tunnel and housing vibrate (can't feel it, hear it) with the pitch of the track, which is like a "speaker." Sounds as if it reaches resonant frequency. This is when the entire housing and its components reach the point where they all begin to "sing." Like riding in a car with a bad muffler - you get a "drone" sound that goes right through you. Do you have any suggestions? I'm to the point I don't even want to ride the sled.
My dealer explained to me that the weights were worn and recommended they be replaced and told me that this was a wear item and wasn’t covered under my warranty. The way Bruce explained it sounds like it should have been covered. Which is true? Worn weights covered during this recall or not? Thanks guys, awesome stuff.
Weights are a wear item. Would have to be a factroy defect for them to be covered which is few and far between. Bruce was just saying that they COULD be covered but id assume most are not, Thanks for following along!
@@JESSEJAMES322 sadly it was a parts issues and Polaris was super slow at allocating parts to dealers, I have one of the best dealers around and they couldn't get parts. Polaris really does need to do better here.
"it is no surprise to anyone that Polaris has released some stop rides stop sales that pose a safety issue to us as consumers". Read that back. Your own words. Only surprise is guys that keep buying the junk.
@@pajamatime5750 In 2001. Brand new at the time. I've been riding new sleds since 1997. That was an Mxz 583. Another primer start, piece of junk I got rid of quick. Only sled I never could break was a Yamaha. We sno crossed sleds in Maine before it was a sport.
@@RydinginStyle72 Ohhh I see. I was going to say I had a 600 XC in 2000 (the anniversary edition)…. That was a great sled. Connecting rod went at 4500 miles. That was the first issue we had with it!
I’m actually picking up my RMK/9R today! I was part of the collective stop sale until my clutch recall was addressed. Thanks to you and Bruce to explain a little more of why and what was replaced by Polaris. Now we just need some snow in the Rockies
Leave it at the dealer.. get a BRP.. and actually ride the sled and not spend the winter sitting at home waiting for sled to be fixed at the dealer when the 2nd or 3rd round of recalls come. It’s pathetic.
Sort of a shame .I just came back to polaris but have been discouraged by all the recalls.Kinda reminds me of the polaris 900 confusion(fusion)they made
Respectfully, the minimization of these issues in your video is not appreciated. While it is true that Polaris has come up with “Fixes” for these issues, I along with countless other customers continue to wait for parts availability to repair both my ‘22 boost and ‘23 9R. All while Polaris proudly posted about shipping all new ‘24’s. Shows me how much they value their existing customers. These quality control issues and ongoing frustration with endless and indeterminate waiting times for repairs led me to do something I never imagined….bought a doo, first non-Polaris I’ve purchased in 30 years and frankly I don’t plan to go back
@@JESSEJAMES322 I’m SLP , I run a 700 Liberty Performance Edition Motor , bored carbs , the whole catalog , 2004 switchback , 2005 RMK motor to replace my seized motor , backwards cooling system from 2004 , had my Polaris shop confused ! I was too ? SLP says 151 hp , Rich Daily on the phone says maybe 9 hp tops , that would be 137 hp , but goes like like Mad ! I’m Happy , even though I have brand new sled money into a 2004 , I’m a U.P. trail rider , no powder , unless it’s have a smoke time ! Meet you on top the power line
I’m currently waiting on parts. My dealer says they are back ordered. How are they able to sell these new machines with the updated clutch before they make it right with the people that have already purchased their product? Seems wrong! Called customer service and they said parts should be available. Dealer says parts are back ordered… who’s lying? This is like my 5th recall. Getting a little ridiculous. They are all “stop rides” so technically I can’t ride my sled. But continue seeing all these people picking up their new sleds. 😤
thats the dealers decision. If they are selling new sleds with the updated parts then they are lying and parts are available. I know Bruce has piles of new clucthes and ive seen them do about 20 replacements already and they are able to get parts soooo
@@JESSEJAMES322definitely not true, I work at a dealer in WNY. Polaris has only sent us recall parts for sleds in our inventory that are affected. Every time we go to order the part the Polaris site tells us “currently unavailable please check back in a week”
Been a rough couple of years for Poo, they need to do better and test thing more before releasing. The season is already short enough don't need this. Luckily I got mine fixed quickly and even got a refund on the fuel I burnt heading back to the dealership. My time is money so i fought hard to bring that point accross
It's all about sending them out the door. Then they make the dealer repair the problem. It's been like that for years at polaris. If your the guy that buys a new sled every couple years then you don't care. If your the guy that rides it until it's beyond repair then stay away
no no that is not what we said. Clutches get changed free of charge. Bruce said if we are in there and some of the compenents that is getting switched over (ramps and springs) are damaged they will be changed under warranty if your sled is under warranty. Clutch replacement is covered
Don't get me wrong I love Polaris snowmobiles but owning one is like owning a chevy. They constantly need things fixed and the factory quality sucks. Out of three brand new sleds I had to always go through them and re-clutch, and adjust and fix all kinds of things to get the thing running smooth and tight like rejetting and everything on the carbureted sleds. Out of the box quality is terrible. Maybe I just had bad luck
@@JESSEJAMES322 yeah 50 year old guys like me just ride four-stroke turbocharged Yamaha and Arctic Cats now they are more like the older sleds like the rider
@@JESSEJAMES322 they do but other companies don’t have them year after year and also they just had their first one in how long and also didn’t have delays with snow checks
they also havent come out with anything new in 11 years (not exact jusy throwing that out there). with innovation comes learning curves. Arcticcat comes out with a new model finally and boom recall. thats the way I see It.

Thank you for this video. I’ve been looking for 2 months on information about my boost.
boost recall fixes just came out and It sonly the fuel line

i am not polaris. im just bringing people the info on what is being done for their recall.
Had appointment for the fuel rail recall my dealer does not have the parts yet thanks for a possible date.
theyre coming
We’ve done two so far at my dealership, we got the parts this past Tuesday for them
My 2020 xc 850 ring gear broke and took out engine case mount and was last day under warranty so new engine. really lucked out on this
wow you are the first person ive spoken too that its happened too. For sure lucky! Goes to show these recalls are for a reason!
Just spoke to my dealer outside of Syracuse and no clutches available. If it weren't for this video I wouldn't have even known. Thanks for the info, post.
no problem. happy to help!
Great information but as a consumer extremely disappointed with Polaris!
stuff happens. all manufacturers have recalls. hope this is the last batch
I'm actually pretty happy about them, because at least they are proactive about it and they are not pretending it's not an issue and letting people pay for them.
Good job Polaris we have one of these to be recalled Great job on polaris's part not like the rest of the junk out there
Bought a 22 pro 850 and 22 Khaos.
Fuel tank fire hazard
Handlebar hooks
Clutches
Brake heating issue.
Pretty ridiculous after dropping 45k on a power sport
What is the said explanation? Rush to production without testing?
Does this include the 2024 model year? It was listed on the mailed recall letter
shouldnt but have to call your dealer and have them run the vin to triple check
Thank you @@JESSEJAMES322
When you said you were going to go over ALL of them, I thought this video would take over four hours 😂
quick and simple!!!
Waiting on replacement clutches in Central NY. My dealer has seen very few clutches come in from Polaris for the fix.
Unfortunately if your dealer was not very proactive and order clutches right away It seems they’re back ordered now until February

Hasn’t been the best experience for me yet with Polaris.
So the entire clutch is being replaced? I had heard from a different source it was the spider, to include a race style cover.
p22 for a 9R is full clutch
I have a vr1 boost. Did the fuel line recall. However I have an oil leak when parked. Quite a bit of oil actually. Not sure if I can ride it? Parts are on back order till February.
they only leak when they arent running. i would run it
I have the oil leak on my boost. Took it in for a preseason and recall today and they said parts to repair the oil leak are back ordered until end of January. Hope this isn’t the case.
I have not heard that but seems many parts are backordered right now
I was wondering about the clutch recall I am getting that fixed this week or next coming week
Hey thanks for all that good news🙄🙄😂😂,I just put that assault front torque arm in my 137 xc it fits no problem 👍And ir seems like its actually Square unlike my original 👍👍
thats a plus!

they are replacing bolt. figured that was null after people heard getting a new clutch
I called my dealer about 3 weeks ago and haven't heard back from them yet
i would call them again
Fortunately dodged this one - sounds like Bruce is ready to get busy - good news for those who need it
hes always ready!!

I couldn't agree with you more. I have an xcr 22 and a 23 vr1 boost. The vr1 is a bit more tolerable but not by much. I too am desperate for a remedy!

does not. model year 22-24 but can call your dealer to see if there are any open recalls
Get a Venom Team Tied Secondary , Nice !
I’m assuming it would tell me on my Polaris website if mine has the recall? It says no recall it’s a 23 xcr850
should tell you! or give youyr dealer a call and they will be able to tell you
Have you heard about a fix for the throttle sticking issue on the boost?
That came out right after this. its a service bulliten for a "re-callibration"
thanks i will check with my dealer again.@@JESSEJAMES322
Herters Rules ! Everybody else Drools ! Ride the Red Bubble

thats what it is. its a safety issue so thats why they release these. not junk. all manufacturers have issues. all good
@@JESSEJAMES322Only poos seem to constant have the most and biggest issues. So much for American made.
I like the Magnum Force weights , up or down RPM’s in two minutes , weights are all dead accurate ,
does this apply to a 22' Vr1 650 as well?
please call your dealeraship and have them run your vin
What years are recalled
2021 VR1 ???
please call your dealer to have your vin ran. its not by full year. some sleds in a certain year are affected and some are not
I bought 22 Polaris khaos 850 took two years too fex I miss alot awesome snow days. I'm very disappointed with Polaris. .

So can I find my status on Ride Command?
not 100% sure. i would contact your dealer and have them run your vin
