As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    The product, in the report: 2018 Can-Am X3 XRS Max

    I have had issues with the power steering on my machine since new. I have had it into the dealership for 66 days since I purchased it 9 months ago and they have been unable thus far to resolve the issues that I have been having with it. The steering wheel rips out of my hands at speed, and I am unable to turn the vehicle at a stop.

    The product, in the report: 2013 Can Am Commander Limited 1000

    Steering on 2013 Can Am Commander Limited was completely lost while my wife was driving the vehicle. No substantial injuries were sustained but very well could have been as she crashed into a snow bank. After researching and finding in can-am commander forum there are many people reporting this same issue and it seems to be recurring. Steering wheel would free spin and not turn the wheels. After further inspection the coupler that goes between the DPS and Rack steering strips out and no longer steers the vehicle. Seems most of the time this is happening at low speeds but some have stated that it has occurred at high speeds.
