Can-Am® Commander Side-by-Side Off Road Vehicles
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
BRP is recalling 2011, 2012, and early 2013 model year gas-powered Can-Am Commander side-by-side vehicles due to a fire hazard. Debris such as leaves, hay, and grass can accumulate in the vehicle's exhaust pipe area when operating in wet terrain. When this debris dries out near the hot exhaust pipe, it creates a fire risk. The recall affects multiple Commander models including the 800R, 1000, XT, X, Limited, and DPS variants.
If you own one of the affected vehicles, you should immediately stop using it and check your exhaust for accumulated debris using the Cleaning Procedure of Exhaust Area guide, which is available at your local BRP dealer or at www.can-am.brp.com. Contact a BRP dealer to schedule a free update kit repair. BRP has already notified registered consumers directly about this recall.
