I was told today that the XRS 65 was Recalled. Is this true?

I have not received an email, so i looked it up and there is nothing about a recall. I bought mine through Target and they are usually good about recalls and it is still on sale on their website. So i would assume that it hasnt been.

I hear you. I can think of several reasons to put off returning the camera. If it ain't broke... Also, as the recall picks up steam, the delay getting it back might increase. IMHO, just keep in mind the impression I get from reading the Nikon groups, and that is, it *will* fail, in fairly short order. Seems right to me, otherwise, Nikon would have dealt with this on a case-by-case basis rather than recalling *every* unit. So, my (unsolicited) advice would be (a) make sure you get this fixed before the warranty runs out; and (b) if you have a must-do situation (like professional gig or once-in-a-lifetime vacation) have a viable backup with you.

No it is not (or at least the are no LS-15 markings), I immediately checked after hearing the HP recall and seems this is not the same.

Ditto last answer. Not under recall, a replacement for a quieter unit I was more pleased with. Does the job though.

I didn't know of a recall. My going to look into that. So far I haven't had any issues.

engadgethd.com and dailytech.com both have articles that this item was recalled by ATI. I was at Best Buy here in Vegas yesterday (9/27/06) and they had some on the shelf. There and Amazon are the only places I have seen them so I'm going to assume it was just an oversight by them and will wait for the new ones to come out.

I have never owned a 660, so I can't really help you as to the specifics between the two. I thought the only difference is the 660 doesn't use XM for sat radio, weather and traffic. I will say, I have had 3 665's. The first 2 failed under warranty. My current one still shuts down, maybe once on a long ride, for no particular reason. I assume you've read my review of the 665 on Amazon. The 550 was a much better unit, but didn't have the NEXRAD radar.

I am not certain, but I can tell you I bought two of the ones with the red/green/orange arm and registered them online and have not received any recall notice. I am not confident that it means mine are OK though since I also sent in a support ticket asking if mine had the recalled sun and never received a response. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful

The difference between the two models, the XRS 9965 and the XRS 9970G is that the latter includes GPS and can detect "RED LIGHT" camera zones and other speed traps, the "AURA" database is free to update for the lifetime of the unit. It's definitely worth the extra few bucks.

I'am not sure as I seem to be in the same boat. I realize that they are both 18 volts but the plastic projections on the top of the xrp battery don' t seem to match up with the xr battery.

I have the xrs 9370 and as you may see from my review it does not give ANY warning against the latest 'police' radars. I would expect the 9570 to not work either. You will always get false alarms, even with the expensive Bells etc.Hope this helps.

After contacting ATI customer service they said the card was recalled due to overheating issues. He said that the problem would be resolved by next month.

Keith Kreider, I will have to contact the manufacturer to know for sure, however, I suspect it is because there is a California Proposition 65 Warning on the system. Customer Service TheBetterBuy

I don't know for sure, but suspect it is related to a recall a couple of months ago over the materials used in the viewfinder on a group of this model produced in the last quarter of 2013. I have my camera registered with Canon and was immediately notified about the problem and that my camera wasn't affected. This was the most popular Canon Point and Shoot for a long time on Amazon (at a much lower price). By the way, I love my SX50 and recommend it highly. It is loaded with great features as a bridge camera and the zoom is awesome.

I noticed too the short battery life reviews, but then realized that these were mostly quite old reviews. Apparently the old model used the LR44 battery which had that problem. You'll see the current model uses a CR2032 battery, with a better life span. Also, the new reviews of this don't mention a problem that I see. I just received mine, and it is the newer model.

Well they should have a manufacture warranty with XR brand. Have never had a problem or complaint about the product threw our customer. Hope this helps.
