I bought a 2011 230 Challenger 230 SE last July. Nothing but problems since day 1. Starboard engine wasn't shimmed properly and caused major cavitation. Boat has leaked since I had it (a gallon of water in the bilge after just a two hour run). And now, with ONLY 24 HOURS.....I get a check engine light. Have been told that the ECU has failed. The dealer is telling me that he can't get one until the end of July (took the boat in five weeks ago). Thought I would do some searching on the internet to find one myself. Couldn't find one but everyone I talked to said the same thing, they have never heard of an ECU failing.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem? And does anyone know where I can get an ECU?
Has anyone had these kind of problems? Fresh off the showroom floor....ZERO hours.....Left pump cavitates like crazy. Taking on water. Service department at the dealership finds the left engine/pump assemply was not shimmed----> misalignment----> damaged the carbon ring. Also found that were the upper and lower hulls meet in the rear, the area was not siliconed properly. The service manager tells me he see this all the time, in Seadoo's and Yamaha's................................seriously??
Am I looking at major problems down the road? (lucked out and got the 4 year warranty deal) Should I walk away?
