We have the same machine and mine does the same thing with the seats. I, like you when I first drove it I thought my seat was loose. I love mine though, but I can understand why that would drive someone crazy lol.
My son bought a 2023 general ultimate. In three months the oil pump went out and list the motor. We had extended warranty and all the maintained records and had to fight the dealer to fix it. Had to call the corporate office and after alot of deliberation they agreed to fix it, when I go to pick it up they tried to charge me one thousand dollars to do the pm or put the oil back in it. Now shifter cable broke and it’s only been risen for about seven months and I guess we will have to go at it again to get this fixed. No more for me
I have the same 23 General but not ride command. My seats are also noisy but nowhere near as loose as your passenger one. Id show that video to your dealership and see if they can help. As i told you earlier I had a couple of issues with mine when new transmission leak and loud rattling sound in back. Dealer fixed both new vehicle issues and I now have 80 hours on it and love it.
On my 2022 General 1000 XP I had that rattle also. I adjusted the passenger door locking mechanism bar where the latch connects to the body, and that took care of it. I think there were a couple adjustment screws if I recall.
I have the exact machine. Seats are not wiggly. I am very pleased with it. I had a Honda Talon and was happy with it but the suspension was horrible. I

By the way , the paslode is working fine after a clean and new o-rings. Enjoying your channel after your excavator review showed up in my feed..keep up the good work 👍🏻
I can answer the how quite is engine noise in cab question , it’s best in class, I’ve owned rmaxx and cammander, Polaris general has them both beat in cab engine noise, and the don’t have the heat build up in cab like older commanders had, great machines wish I still had mine
Good video. Have a ‘24 General Ultimate. Love it! Seats are fine and super comfy. It’s a great off-road machine. Expensive, but what isn’t. Just love this thing.
My parents have a 2020 Xp 4 and it rattles for sure, but it’s so comfortable for long rides. Looking to buy one soon since all we do is go camping. That mini ex is badass though!
Put the seat all the way back and it won't rattle. Mine only does it when the seat is all the way forward. Get the one way rubber floor drains, they are awesome. Trust me, I have to do a shi. Ton of fixes, repairs etc to mine and it's a 2023 XP 4. The attention to detail and the piss poor design are hard to swallow, especially for what we pay for them. You would think that if I can come up with a fix on my own, someone that manufacturers them could do it before they leave the factory. Just sayin.
I’ve never been impressed with the Polaris quality. The last brand new one I bought I sold after a month. Compared to the can-ams I’d had it just felt chincy and like it was going to break. I have a Kawi now and not sure what’s next.
Ya same with the new can am. I was watching sxs blogs the new can am was a horrible fit and finish and body parts were falling off as they rode it 😮. Like Kyle said. For the money we shouldn’t be seeing either of these issues from either manufacturer
@@richsharp1524 agreed. Ever since Covid seems like everything is trash. Not just powersports but across all industries. We see it at work with everything we order. Sad
I just bought the identical General XP Ultimate in the same color, I was wondering why you were getting rid of it, till you said you wanted to keep it except for the mini-excavator, which is understandable!
The seat mechanism on a Polaris 170 Rzr is nicer than this! (atleast in 2015). Good informative video, especially for someone who wants to buy a General in a few years.
Just always make the Keystone girl sit in the passenger side and hold onto the door with one hand to stop it from squeaking while she holds on to your *ice* *tea* with her other hand.
I like how transparent you are especially on something your trying to sell. Maybe you can do enough videos on it and it will pay for it. lol Just kidding. . Great video as always.
in my opinion, polaris has been making cheaper and cheaper rigs for the last 10 years, and charging more for them. Real problem is however there are people like you that are willing to pay that much for less every year. as a business model polaris loves this, quit buying them and polaris will change their ways.
The childish humor in these videos are great! 😂😂😂 is great? ah, who am I kidding? I do not need to know proper grammar when I am laughing at fart and touching POV jokes.
@carlgrayman7663 oh i know buddy. Id rather look at her too. She’ll be in the next one. Ever since we moved shes been running all over with the girls. Shes coaching basketball too. Glad your enjoying the channel.
someday ill be able to get a General, Till then im stuck with a RZR. Generals are big Money, i have although put general seats in my rzr and what Big diff it makes. My General seats are older, yours look like RZR seats with diff badging. The General Seats I have are alot diffrent then yours and do not make any noise at all BUT they do move around like yours.
They are. I actually ended up selling mine already. I made a video on that ad well. Too much money sitting there not getting used to its full potential
Mines the same, all in all a gigantic POS!!!! Bought it new, had it back to the dealer AT LEAST a dozen times within the first 3 months to fix various fitment, rattles and mechanical issues. After that, I said enough is enough and handed it back to the dealer, much to their dismay. But with that many DOCUMENTED by the dealership issues, they had no choice but to hand me a check for a refund. Took the check and went and bought a Can-Am and couldn't be happier. Although the Can-Am does have some plastic panels that leave a little to be desired as far as they way they fit, but other than that, night and day better than that POS general.
50k in Canada for this. Polaris do better.They want to sell these at new car prices but don't want to make sure all the squeaks and rattles and refinement are out. This machine isnliterslky worth 20k tops enclosed
Kyle, at the 8:50 mark. Yea, it is just you having this problem, as is your truck (DEF fluid) ! And the problem IS,... Quality is no longer a value needed in life! Complacency took over. Everyone works for... NBC !!! NO BODY CARES. FIY... an acronym that now means... FIX IT YOURSELF !! 'Perfect' is a word used for sarcasm !! I feel for ya Bud, but it is what it is.
@@SpicerDesignsLLC Ya gotta learn that song from the movie Frozen! 'Let it go, let it go ' !!!! And try to buy old $#!+, may get frustrated fixing it, but that stuff seems to hold value.
Polaris hasn't changed much of how they construct these things. My 2015 900 XC is about the same as this General inside, except there seems to be more room because of that reason I haven't upgraded to a newer machine. There is, however something that has me thinking hard, the new XP 1000 Ultimate.
My Polaris sucks list is way bigger than yours about 4,000 mile and the money pit kicks in 10,000 and pretty much shot rebuilt engine, trans steering rack several wheel bearing several drive shafts keep bending, axle splines to trans and diff garbage,diff garabage, only happy Polaris owners are ones that don't ride, changed all fluids evey 500 mls never in deep water or mud and drive like they're to be driven clutches garbage ,STM primary and secondary lasted 3 times longer i now have 16,680 wouldn't recommend a Polaris period Honda would be my next machine hands down.
These sxs are plastic pcs of expensive belt driven crap. I got my TJ w a cummuns 4bt w a full frame off restoration for $20k and its 10 times the machine these are.

Added heat shrink to my door catches so they don't squeak. Added rubberized tape to the seat mounts to stiffen them up.
Good idea. Its pretty minor and would take much to make it better. That squeaking is definitely annoying. Thanks for the input.
I own a 2022 Troy Lee Designs Polaris General awesome machine, sound system drowns out the squeaks and rattles.

Move the seat back and it won't do that. Mine does it but only when the seat is forward
These are off road machines not a Lincoln or Cadillac! But I do understand your concerns considering the price we pay for these toys.
I agree. The price is the problem. For 30k it shouldnt have minor issues like that. I do love the General. Just wasnt practical at the moment.
For door latch squeaks and rattles...wrap a few layers of duct tape around the latch pin. Did all four doors on my XP4 and the results are excellent.
I got a 2023 an I got 400 miles on it other then brake rattle I love it an im 6,3 an it's fine

My old school buddy in Dallas Tx area sells Polaris next time I’ll look at one just for shit and giggles!

Brand new Yamaha Wolverine X2 1000 is 20 grand!
One of the guys in my group has the XP. It's had errors codes for months. Nothing seems to fix it.
Thats unfortunate. Too expensive of a machine for that to be happening.
This actually my dream sxs, just cant afford one so im stuck with a kawasaki teryx 800 lol riding that thing hurts but its affordable so i make do
That squeaking is really loud. Noise canceling headphones. Does it squeaking with a passenger?
Ya it still squeaks. The door and the seat squeak. Its sold and gone now

Wow !!! The seat kinda sits there.. squeaky squeak 😂
Did you add the slide adjuster to the passenger side seat?
No it cane with it. But Doug from @oneeyecustoms doesnt have a slide either. You can see at the very end of the video in the bloopers.
Thanks my ultimate didn’t either. Leave it to Polaris. Lol
