1,701 units affected
On certain snowmobiles, the movable sheave portion of the drive clutch assembly may develop cracks, which could lead to the sheave fracturing. If a fracture were to occur at high RPM, fractured clutch pieces could be projected and potentially cause injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the drive clutch. Note: In the interim, owners are advised to stop riding their snowmobiles until the defect has been repaired.
