6 recalls across 5 model years
The Can-Am Ryker has 6 recalls covering 2019 through 2023 model years, with the most serious being a handlebar stem bolt on 2022 models that can break without warning, causing sudden and complete loss of steering control.
On 2022-2023 models, the brake lights can stay on even when the brakes are not applied, which removes the visual cue other drivers rely on to anticipate slowing or stopping. Spanning the full 2019-2023 production run, two separate issues can cause the engine to stall while riding: the fuel pump impeller can swell and cause the pump to fail, and the front fender wiring harnesses for the position lights and turn signals can work loose, rub against the tire, short out, and cut engine power. Both conditions raise the risk of a crash when the engine cuts out unexpectedly at speed.
On 2019-2020 models, the wheel nuts can crack and allow the wheels to loosen, leading to loss of control. The 2020 model year has an additional wheel concern: the front wheels on some units may have been improperly installed at the factory, which can allow a front wheel to separate from the motorcycle entirely while riding.
