I know some have said they have broken a motor mount bolt on their Pro RMK. I was wondering how many of you broke one and which one broke. I have a 2011 Switchback Assualt and have broken 2 in 1100. Same one each time right up towards the foot well.

Polaris has told my dealer there has not been a problem but I know I am not the only one.

Rear mag side broke (twice). Your comment on the dealer saying Polaris hasn't heard of any problems irks me, cause I got the same explanation. The second time it broke it was a "bad batch of bolts". My dealer took care of me, along with another industry leader. Haven't had any problems since.

My dealer took care of my as well. The factory guy from Polaris said a bad batch of bolts as well. My dealer called about the new bolt and Polaris said there is no new bolt. If it breaks again I am going to see what Polaris will do for me. The dealer can only do so much.
