Just stopped by my Dealership and they showed me this recall. They've had two incidents out of about 30 units.

Safety Bulletin:
Polaris has determined that some Slingshot vehicles were manufactured with a headlight circuit that does not meet Polaris quality standards. In some vehicles, heat buildup in the engine compartment may cause the headlight circuit relay to derate below the required current draw of the headlights. In addition, temperatures produced at the fuse box terminal pin may be higher than desired. The result of such a condition could be a loss of forward lighting function. This could cause decreased visibility for the vehicle operator, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Potentially Affected Models:
2015-2016 Slin
ghshot and Slingshot SL models manufactured on or before 10/26/2015.
Just got a call from my dealer about 30 minutes ago, (I've vowed to never walk into that place ever again). but anyway's they said that it would take an hour to perform this. Really!!!!!
Mine was the first one they worked on and it only took about 40 minutes. They said the hardest part was getting the fuse block back in place with the new wires attached.
I spent 30 minutes replacing zip ties to make it look nice after I got home.

Yea. I am using the blower fuse for my halo circuit. And I'm running my center led and lower led light on the fog circuit. Its all good now. I have another fuse block in back by the battery.
The only thing I am going to have to do is increase the alternator capacity. When my subs hit my engine races up. I am pushing 1200 real watts to all my speakers. Right now I have two batteries runnig on an isolator. It charges my cranking battery then charges my stereo battery. No matter how many batteries you have the stereo pulls on the alternator when its running.
I probably need to order a high output alternator now that I thought more about it.
I guess that needs to be a new thread. I'm sure someone has sourced one.

My local dealer will be doing the harness and I will pay for the optional split rear axle nut upgrade ($55 with labor - a no brainer). I have also gone the HID route and I have no idea why anyone would want LED other than the angle of the dangle. I added a fuse block under the hood for things like this and to tickle my fancy. An upgraded altenator is a great idea and so is upgrading the battery. After all the SS is 70% flash. J/K
Hi,
My throttle revs for no reason while driving and I have to put it in neutral to slow it down. It’s been at the Polaris dealer in Florida for over a month and they can’t figure it out even with tech support from Polaris corporate. Has anyone had this same problem? If so, this is a...
While driving I heard a vibration and when I would brake I heard a banging sound. I pulled over and noticed I'm missing a bolt. Has anyone had this issue?
I have a 2018 slingshot and battery was dead, so I jumped it, it turned over with some CEL codes in the ride command screen.
First one was, P0230 is a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) for "Fuel Pump Primary Circuit Malfunction".
I figured I'd disconnect the connector from the J box near the...
