don't wanna sound big headed but i called my dealer about 6 months ago and told him my gator was showing to run hot but wasn't. it had 5 hours on it. called me back the next day and said to bring it in to fix a wiring problem that the engineering department said needed to be moved per say. Also yesterday i got a call to say that an exhaust gasket was also under recall. and batteries are also warrantied. i got one yesterday. free! sorry i didn't say anything earlier but just joined the forum yesterday. but you gator gurus prolly already knew! fyi

My 825 didn't apply to that exhaust recall I guess, never heard anything about the other one.

they didn't call me and tell me, my battery died during the winter and wouldn't stay charged so i called and they said they'd give a new one under warranty. my brother took it and swapped it for me so the service lady called to confirm that my brother was doing a warranty claim, when i confirmed she said "Oh by the way, you have 2 recalls on your 825i" so sounds like they aren't tryin to call anyone. just kinda tellin folks when they hear from them! i'd check in to it, i'm taking mine in! i've had mine since sept and i noticed it ran hotter than it should, according to the temp gauge. you should never have temp gauge maxed out! mine maxs out even on the highway but it don't run hot! says it does but don't but when it does i won't know cuz the gauge is already maxed out half the time!
