I purchased my Ryker in June of 2022. Since my purchase I have been dealing with a death wobble in the front during left turns, a serious wobble in the rear during left turns, and continuous vss fault/Limp home mode failure. I reported the issue to the dealer and they attempted to correct the issue, but it has continued to fail. I contacted BRP the parent company, and they refused to respond. There have been 2 safety recalls and I am no longer feeling safe to ride the vehicle.

During a turn the handlebars became loose during steering. While steering the handlebars twisted counter clockwise (this was a left hand turn) approximately 30 degrees. After pulling them back into place, they were still approximately 3 degrees off center. This happened before the bike had even 200 miles on it. My safety was put at risk by not having full steering capabilities. I took the vehicle to the dealer, and they realigned and tightened the bolt down. There were no warning lamps, or indicators of any electrical or mechanical nature to indicate a bolt was loose.
