Transport Canada recalls
03- Label#2022726
6,559 units affected
Issue: The owner's manual for certain side-by-side UTVs is missing information for how a person can contact Transport Canada to report a safety concern. Canadian regulations require all companies to provide this information in the owner's manual. Safety Risk: Not being aware of how to report a safety concern could delay the identification of a safety problem. Corrective Actions: Kubota will notify owners by mail and provide you with an owner's manual insert with the contact information for Transport Canada.
- Lights And Instruments#2022730
6,559 units affected
Issue: Certain side-by-side UTVs are not equipped with reflex reflectors. Canadian regulations require side-by-side UTVs to have these reflex reflectors. Safety Risk: A side-by-side UTV without reflex reflectors may be less visible to others. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Kubota will notify owners by mail and provide you with a set of reflex reflectors and instruction for how to install them.
- Steering#2022635
2,086 units affected
Issue: On certain side-by-side UTVs, the bracket for the electric power steering (EPS) motor may not have been installed correctly. As a result, the steering shaft could break at the base of the steering column assembly and cause a loss of steering. Safety Risk: A loss of steering control could create the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Kubota advises that you should not drive your UTV until this recall inspection is completed. Kubota will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the mounting of the EPS motor and steering shaft. The dealer will replace the mounting bolts and washers, or replace the EPS motor and universal joint, as required.
