Vehicle report
Technical service bulletins are instructions a manufacturer sent its dealers about a known fault. They are not recalls and the work is usually not free, but they are the clearest signal of a problem the manufacturer already knows about.
Team Tip 2026-03
Submitting a Debug Report immediately after a Digital Wrench II incident is strongly recommended. Digital Wrench II errors may be caused by vehicle module issues, software or equipment malfunctions, or interruptions during updates and flash procedures. Common causes include poor internet connectivity, low vehicle battery voltage, and accidental or premature disconnection of Digital Wrench II components.

All 2017-2019 Slingshot models equipped with the Slingshade accessory (including factory-equipped GT models) present the possibility of contact between the driverâs seat headrest and the Slingshade door latch. With the Slingshade door closed, the seat headrest can make contact with the door latch while tilting the seat forward. If the seat is allowed to tilt forward unrestrained, the force of the seat can damage the door latch.

Polaris has identified a quality issue affecting some Slingshot brake pressure switches. An intermittent failure of the switch triggers a "Brake Failure" malfunction indicator lamp, which is visible on the gauge cluster. There is no change in brake function as a result of this failure.
TSA-18-01
Polaris has identified a quality issue affecting a small number of Slingshot mufflers, where insufficient penetration of muffler plug welds weakens the muffler wall, making it susceptible to fatigue failure. The first mode of failure is a loosening of the wall, distinguishable by a rattle during normal engine operation. If left unrepaired for an extended period of time, a hole may form in the muffler wall resulting in noticeably higher noise levels.

Safety Bulletin T-16-06 has been updated to reflect an additional procedure. Polaris has determined that (PN 2207085-XXX) swingarm kits being shipped to dealers did not include two rubber grommets in the swingarm. If the rubber grommets were not included in the kit, remove the grommets from the original swingarm and install into the new swingarm as part of the procedure.

Polaris has determined that the six screws used to fasten the SLR steering wheel to the hub adapter may not have achieved the specified torque of 72 in-lbs. (8.1 Nm) during production. Screws that have not been properly torqued may begin to loosen as the vehicle is driven. While there is no risk of the steering wheel becoming disengaged from the hub adapter, the operator may notice a slight change in steering feedback.

A new wheel alignment kit has been developed for the Polaris Slingshot. This special tool will allow your dealership to easily check and precisely adjust the alignment settings for wheel toe, caster, and camber. These settings are critical for optimal vehicle performance, and should be checked as a regular maintenance item, as well as any time a modification is made to the suspension or steering system.
T-17-01-01
Slingshot has had a small but concerning number of post bulletin repair contacts due to failure to properly assemble the rear axle, sprocket and nuts. Improper installation may result in a rear axle assembly with insufficient clamp load. When proper clamp load is not achieved, the vehicle may experience erratic or incorrect rear wheel speed sensor readings. Symptoms include a reduction in deceleration during engine braking and a feeling of cruise control being engaged or the ABS solenoid being activated during light to moderate braking. This may occur when the axle splines or sprocket splines are not properly cleaned to remove corrosion or Loctite® prior to reassembly.
T-16-04
Polaris has determined that some Slingshot vehicles could have a steering shaft pinch bolt and set screw that do not meet Polaris quality standards. To improve the steering shaft fit and reduce steering wheel free-play, Polaris has completed validation of revised steering shaft hardware.

PCDX is an online and mobile interface for providing a consistent dealer setup and customer delivery experience. The interface walks the dealer and the customer through a standardized online form that includes the PDI (pre-delivery inspection), general warnings, assembly and inspection, safety bulletins, test ride, customer information, customer walkaround and discussion, and customer acceptance. This application has been proven in dealerships to automate document retention, streamline vehicle setup, and provide a consistent, professional customer experience. Vehicles shipped after 11/1/2015 no longer include a paper PDI form with the vehicle setup material; instead dealers should complete the vehicle setup and PDI using the PCDX application, which can be located on the Dealer Website under Service and Warranty â PCDX.
