Now they are worried, but too late car maybe on the water.😂 NOT SURPRISED one but for 1st year build issues and thanks for being a test mule for the rest of us.

I asked Conner for a written copy of the warranty so I could understand what is covered and what isn't. Conner wouldn't or couldn't provide anything, so we really have no idea what the warranty is. This is problematic if the warranty is "whatever Robby says it is"

I would have stopped driving it so they cant come back and say, yeah we saw your video where you state you continued driving the car after a known issue thus voiding your warranty.

A little research would have gone a long way in your case, me and my dad did about a years worth of research into every sxs manufacturer, can am are far and away the leaders in reliability, we went with the 21 maverick rr without smartshox to save some money, we have 200 hours on the machine now with zero issues so far, we replaced the belt at 100 hours for maintenance and did the oil too, our car is driven in the high desert of California, El mirage to be exact, it's always above 100 degrees except in winter and the machine performs perfectly, when it comes to a toy you spend so much money on I think it's important that it simply works, small issues shouldn't be happening if proper product development was done.

Sucks your going through all this man. I was super pumped over the speed and it’s been an absolute disaster. I was on the fence about getting one or a new pro r or the new maverick r but theirs pretty much only 2 of ya doing any kinda reviews on em and both have been pretty much the same…”let down” I think is the best way to describe it. Plus they tout a 300hp rating but ya can’t use it or it screws your warranty. For the price of these machines they shouldn’t be having all these issues. I was rooting for Robby and the speed cars but I can’t see trusting one at this point enough to even consider buying one. Sad part is I have a stupid little cfmoto z950 and it gets treated like crap and it’s never let me down “I could expect it” but for 16k and almost 1000 miles of absolutely trashing it she still looks new and holds together. It’s pretty sad when the speed is 3-4 times the cost of it. Looks like my next car is gonna be the maverick r “I really wanted a speed”. But I guess time will tell what’s gonna happen. Again sorry your dealing with all this and I wish ya all the luck in the world. But by the sounds of it ya might wanna dump it while you can.

@@allmotorhash it’s sad they touted it up as a big deal but if you buy the speed key it voids your warranty immediately. The only way to get a warranty is to pay “something like 3500-7k” to extend your warranty to cover the speed key. To me that’s ridiculous. That’s like getting a dodge demon and them saying for a dollar you can get the “red key” and drag race it and then take your warranty” honestly with how it’s going for these customers it’s smart because their factory warranty seems to run out while it’s in the shop because it doesn’t seem like anyone’s actually getting to use them, plus super long delays getting them out “yes I get the vid was going on” but I wish Robby would’ve done better testing and really got them dialed in but he didn’t and it’s showing. It blows because it is such a cool car and has a great interior and the trans is amazing imo. The parts and pieces are super cool but the sum of them all has been absolutely atrocious.

There comes a point when you respect yourself and your hard-earned cash more than you do the reputation of a manufacturer that took over a decade to fix the upper bearing failure on their transmissions. This guy doesn't get it but if his transmission isn't going into gear there's some serious shit wrong. If that shift lever has to be forced there's something broken inside.
