My dealer called me today and claimed the "fix" consists of installing new software which gets rid of the problem of the steering "hump".
It was explained to me that the units affected are ones which are being pushed beyond their designed use, ie: racing. The riders are experiencing a brief moment of very hard steering at the beginning of the turn. The mechanical linkage is not affected, just the computer's input, hence the new software.
BRP says this is a voluntary recall but they are offering it to all owners just in case.
Nowthen, take the above dealer statements with a grain of salt because, as we all know, dealers seem to give different info at different locations.
Ah, the joys of recalls...
