Warning to all atv riders. i purchased a brand new Can Am DS450 xmx from Performance East Inc or East Carolina Powersports from out of state. When the bike arrived at my house i notice the bike had been used. i figured since it was a 2009 model it would have some wear from the show room, but this bike had been used.

The first clue that i has been ripped off was when the bike would not start. i replace the battery and got the bike to run. But once the bike warmed up it would stall and would not start. after several tries later I gave up and took the bike to the local dealer in Miami.

The Dealer plugged the computer in and we found that the bike had 22 hours and no service. Later the dealer calls me and tells me that the bike had been over filled with oil and all the sensors needed to be removed and cleaned. No big deal the bike is new and should be under warranty. Wrong! Since its a human error to over fill the bike with oil Can Am will not cover this repairs.

My issue with Performance East and East carolina Powersports ( is that they sold me a used bike as new and not properly maintained bike. I call, and they do not respond, i email them and they call the local repair place liars.

Do not buy or deal with Performance East and East Carolina Powersports

These pictures were taken on day one before i could ride the bike.

 

This is not just a Can Am issue, but a dealer issue. i posted on this section cause Performance East is also a large Yamaha dealer.

thanks for reading my post

 

Thanks for this!. I was thinking about getting a four wheeler from them but. Not now!

 

thank you for reading my post and your support.

 

Even though you may not get many responses, your post is appreciated. It's good ATVers look out for each other.
Thanks!

 

We all look out for each other no matter what brand we own. Even if we are at each others throats comparing brands lol.

 

i purchased a 550 xp from them which they told me they would take care of the service because it had 22 hrs on it. when i picked up the bike and brought it home i realized the service hadn't been done ,when i called them they said just bring it back ,now i live 90 miles from them. long story short when i took it to them ,then went back to get it they charged me 125.00. FREAKING CROOKS
