Recent Recall (Alternator)

That tells me that there has been at least one thermal incident that has caused significant damage.

Mine is on the list. Dang! He said parts are back ordered, could be SEVERAL weeks before they have the replacement. I’m pretty steamed right now.....

Man that sucks. So are you going to stay sidelined?

I don’t know yet. Seems like alternators are available through several online retailers. I’m going to see if I can get the dealership to buy one and then they can get reimbursed from Indmar or moomba. I’m concerned my insurance wouldn’t cover a “thermal event”. Otherwise I would keep using it. It’s been fine the last 30 hours...... just saying....

That why I’m so upset. I travel for work and miss plenty of time with my kids. The boat is the big family event of the summer. I’m stunned that the dealership had no plan other than to wait for indmar to ship a alternator. If I could find them online, why can’t they. Again super disappointed....

Once they cashed my check I guess all costumer service bets are off! Anybody from Moomba monitor this forum? If so can you provide clarification on how long we are dead in the water?

Ya I have an appointment for the 24th and they said it will be ready on the 31st so I guess they were able to get the alternator. I am just contemplating keeping for the weekend and using it and taking it in on the 28th. I was only planning to go out Sunday but it is the first time I am taking the wife and daughter as well as my in-laws and everyone else. It is going to be a tough call. As you stated I have 16 hours on it so far

That’s good news for you. All I have is bad news. I just texted my dealer and they don’t have a date for fixing my boat. Rumor is factory is out. And there isn’t any date for re-supply. I’m not very optimistic at this point. I wish the dealership had a ballpark date. Anybody know/ have a contact at skiers choice? Would love to get a realistic answer about this.

To be honest I have not been too impressed with Indmar. It’s nothing about the power of the motor or anything, I had a bad experience last summer and this just adds to my growing complaints about Indmar.

A bad experience on the customer service side?

I have a good buddy who just bought a 2019 SL450 from the boat show, he has 14 hours on it and his boat broke down last week. Its in the shop the and it is in need of a new alternator. Indmar has recalled all 240 amp alternators on the 2019 boats with the larger alternator.
