Polaris Industries Inc. is recalling certain Model Year 2023 and 2024 recreational off-road vehicles or ROVs, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.<\/p>\n
The recall involves Model Year 2023 RZR PRO XP and PRO XP 4 and Model Year 2024 RZR XP and XP 4 vehicles. About 2,500 units were sold in the United States, and about 170 units in Canada.<\/p>\n
The affected vehicles were sold in black, graphite, gray, red and white colors, and in two and four-seat configurations. <\/p>\n
The vehicles were manufactured in Mexico and sold at authorized Polaris dealers nationwide from January 2023 through August 2023 for between $21,000 and $37,000.<\/p>\n
According to the agency, the improperly routed brake line can contact the front wheels during vehicle operation resulting in brake line damage and brake loss. This could cause a crash.<\/p>\n
The recall was initiated after the Medina, Minnesota-based firm received three reports of the brake line being incorrectly installed and experiencing loss of brakes, including one report that a unit hit a large rock. However, no injuries have been reported to date related to the recalled vehicles.<\/p>\n
Consumers are urged to immediately stop using these vehicles and contact a Polaris dealer to schedule a free inspection and repair.<\/p>\n
In September, Polaris had recalled Ranger Recreational Off-Highway Vehicles and certain other utility vehicles citing risk of injury.<\/p>\n
In August, Polaris recalled over 40,000 vehicles in two separate recalls. About 27,300 model year 2021 RZR XP Turbo and RZR Turbo S recreational off-road vehicles were recalled citing fire and injury hazards. In addition, Polaris off-road vehicles, Bobcat and Gravely utility vehicles, fuel pump kits and fuel tank assemblies were also called back citing fire hazard. <\/p>\n
