This page covers 1 recall and 21 owner complaints for the 2013 Can-Am Spyder St.
Complaints about the 2013 Can-Am Spyder ST cluster most heavily around heat and fuel system concerns. Across multiple reports, owners describe excessive heat radiating from the side panels and floorboard areas during riding, with several noting the surfaces become hot enough to cause contact burns on legs and thighs. Fuel-related symptoms accompany the heat complaints in some cases, with owners reporting gas fumes in the riding area and what they describe as fuel boiling in the tank. The fuel/propulsion system draws the highest complaint volume, and these reports often overlap with the heat issue rather than representing a separate problem. Engine and brake complaints each appear in a handful of reports; on the brake side, owners describe the brake light staying on after the engine is off and the vehicle entering a reduced-power state tied to a speed sensor fault, sometimes with cruise control becoming inoperative alongside it.
