My friend spoke with BRP, they are issuing a recall on the side cover for the engine access. We are supposed to be getting letters in the mail.
And, what I found funny was...He was asked how long it took to get his ski. He ordered his in September. So he told them four months. They were shocked lol.

The recall can't be for all Sparks. It must just be for some of them. A recall on all of them would be a pretty big recall.

Have any of you guys experienced problems with the "side cover for the engine access?"

I would think since the hulls are the same on all models of the spark it might pertain to everyone. The side cover will not go back on properly. A manager here bought two and one has had this problem already.

I just got mine replaced from my dealer. I'll take some pics of the redesigned tabs later on.

Anymore info on the recall? Is it just the panel for the engine? Or an engine problem?

When did you buy your ski and how long did it take to get there?

So do you have to replace the part yourself? They are not making you bring it to a dealer in order for them to fix it?

My guess it would be something you can do yourself it really isn't that hard.

Kinda funny that you get to do it yourself. I guess that is a lot easier than having to bring it to a dealer. Glad that no one is too upset about this or anything. Seems like this is about as smooth as you could expect a recall to go.
