Fuel/Propulsion System · reported Mar 3, 2015
There is a recall of the fuel pump for safety reasons and the dealership keeps telling dates that polaris will have the fuel pump. First it was mid-february and as of today when I spoke with the dealership they said polaris has removed the date and there is no telling when there will be one replaced per the recall of the defected pump. I guess the bike has to stall while I AM using it causing a crash before polaris feels they need to do something.
