On certain Can-Am Spyder RT series and Spyder ST series roadsters, heat build-up in the area of the brake master cylinder could cause the manifold inlet (a plastic cover on top of the master cylinder) to melt. This could cause a brake fluid leak, which may result in a vehicle fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will install heat reflecting shields.
