Transport Canada recalls
03- Lights And Instruments#2018106
2,672 units affected
Certain ATV’s may not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 108 - Lighting System and Retroreflective Devices. The vehicles may have not been equipped with the required rear reflex reflectors, contrary to requirements of the standard. This could decrease vehicle conspicuity and potentially increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Polaris will provide the missing rear reflex reflectors to current owners with instructions for proper placement. If owners are not comfortable installing the reflectors themselves, they can take the reflectors to a Polaris dealer for installation.
- Powertrain#2017384
1,226 units affected
On certain ATV’s, the throttle release switch (TRS) may have been calibrated incorrectly. If the throttle were to become stuck, the TRS may fail to activate and may not release the throttle as designed. A stuck throttle may result in high vehicle speeds and make it difficult to slow or stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the vehicle software to correct the TRS detection.
- Steering#2017212
751 units affected
On certain ATV’s, there is an error within the software which controls the electric power steering (EPS) module. In the event of a lost or intermittent connection to the EPS module, the power steering software would calibrate the steering to roughly five times the ordinary power steering resistance or two times unassisted, manual steering resistance. This sudden increase in steering resistance would unexpectedly increase steering effort, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the software that controls the EPS unit, which will turn off the steering assist, rather an increase steering resistance if a connection fault is detected. Note: In the interim, owners are advised to stop riding their ATV until the defect has been repaired.
