I would never pay for a recall, definately report him to polaris, or have him/her refund the full amount of your purchase including tax, his/her choice. I called my dealer at 8:45a.m. sat. and he had me bring it in that day, out in 20 min. no muss no fuss. I will never deal with a dealer who doesn't stand behinde his product 100%, and I am very fortunate to have one that does.
