This is not an announcement from Polaris... just my own observation and speculation.
I'm hearing from a couple dealer employees that there may be some merit to the rumors of an actual reason for a snowcheck delivery holdup.
The rumor is that there was an issue with the Bosch fuel pump not meeting Polaris quality check. Polaris held up in shipping sleds and have been working with their vendor to rectify the issue.
Polaris wanted to send 2019 sleds out from the factory ready to go instead of having to do a recall later, which I wholeheartedly agree. There isn't enough snow anyway.
The units that already went out may or may not have had the bad fuel pump. I'm hearing that Polaris has the specific sled serial numbers pinned down and identified.
I suspect those affected owners will be notified.
Polaris is once again sending out the "your snow-check has shipped" emails. I also got mine this morning.
So it looks like maybe Polaris has got their issue fixed and is now able to commence with winter.
