American Honda has expanded its recall of approximately 19,500 FourTrax Rancher All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs), including various 2012 TRX420 models. A weld on the front suspension arms can separate, which can cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle and crash. Honda is aware of 10 incidents of weld failures, including one report of a rider suffering a sprained wrist. These red, green, or camouflage vehicles were sold at Honda ATV dealers nationwide from September 2011 to November 2012 for between $5,100 and $7,600. Consumers should immediately stop using these ATVs and contact a dealer for a free repair.
