Summary

Arctic Cat is recalling approximately 1,600 turbo 9000 snowmobiles from the 2016 model year, including the M 9000, XF 9000, XF 9000 Cross Trek, and ZR 9000 models. The brakes on these vehicles can fail, which significantly increases the risk of a crash. These snowmobiles were sold at dealers nationwide between June 2015 and January 2016 in black, green, orange, and white. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled vehicles and contact an Arctic Cat dealer for a free repair.

Risk

The braking system can fail during operation, preventing the rider from slowing or stopping the vehicle. This defect poses a serious risk of injury or death to the operator and others if a crash occurs.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your snowmobile for the model name (M 9000, XF 9000, XF 9000 Cross Trek, or ZR 9000) on the decal located on the top of the chassis between the seat and the rear bumper.
  2. Verify the 10th digit of your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN); the letter 'G' indicates a 2016 model year unit affected by this recall. The VIN is stamped into the chassis near the right foot rest.
  3. Immediately stop using any recalled 2016 Arctic Cat turbo 9000 snowmobile.
  4. Contact an authorized Arctic Cat dealer to schedule a free repair. You can find a dealer or check for more information by calling Arctic Cat at 800-279-6851 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday.
