American Honda is recalling about 3,300 model year 2016 Pioneer 1000 side-by-side recreational off-highway vehicles (ROVs). These three-seat and five-seat motorized off-road vehicles, sold in red, silver, and camouflage colors, have a defect where the front door striker plates can fail. This flaw allows the front door to open unexpectedly while the vehicle is moving. The recalled units were sold at Honda Powersports dealers nationwide between February 2016 and April 2016.
The front door can swing open unexpectedly while the vehicle is in use, which could cause an occupant to fall out or be struck by the door, posing a risk of serious injury. Honda has received one report of an unexpected door release occurring during dealer set-up.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled vehicles and contact their local authorized Honda dealer to schedule an appointment to have the original front door striker plates removed and replaced, free of charge.
