Polaris Industries Inc. Recalls Snowmobiles Due to Loss of Control Hazard
⚠ The right and left front suspension shock towers can separate due to inadequate welding during the manufacturing process. Separation of the welded joints can result in stiffer steering or the shock mount failing suddenly, causing the rider to lose control of the snowmobile and crash.
Remedy: Consumers should stop using their snowmobile immediately and contact their Polaris dealer to schedule an appointment for a free repair. The dealer will install a kit that will replace the original shock towers with new versions. Polaris has directly notified registered consumers with units involved in this recall.
Sold at: Polaris snowmobile dealers nationwide from February 2005 through March 2007 for between $8,400 and $9,900.
Manufacturer: Polaris Industries Inc., of Medina, Minn.
Consumer ContactCall Polaris at (800) 765-2747 between 8 a.m. and 12 a.m. ET everyday, or log onto the company's Web site at www.polarisindustries.com
