Victory Cross Country recalls in Canada

Transport Canada runs its own recall programme. Its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones, so a Canadian owner reading a US-only list is reading about a different car than the one on their driveway.

Other

On certain motorcycles, the throttle cable retention nuts may not have been adequately tightened during vehicle assembly.

Correction: Dealers will tighten the throttle cable retention nuts to the specified torque.
