Summary

American Honda is recalling approximately 1,400 of its 2021 Pioneer 700, Pioneer 1000, and Talon 1000 recreational off-highway vehicles (ROVs) equipped with electric power steering. The vehicles can lose steering function, which poses crash and injury hazards to users and passengers. Honda has received one report of steering failure, though no injuries have been reported so far. The recalled vehicles were sold at Honda Powersports dealers nationwide in red, blue, green, gray, and yellow.

Risk

The steering shaft assembly can fail, causing the driver to lose control of the vehicle. This loss of steering function while in operation significantly increases the risk of a crash that could lead to serious injury or death.
