ARGO is recalling approximately 500 Xplorer ATVs, including models XR 500, XRT 500, XR 570, and XRT 570, because fuel can overflow and cause a fire. The recall includes model years 2020 through 2023 in various colors such as green, red, white, black, blue, and graphite. There have been two reports of fuel overflow incidents, including one fire, though no injuries have been reported. ARGO is contacting purchasers directly to arrange for a free inspection and repair by an authorized dealer.
Incorrectly installed check valves and vent hoses can lead to fuel leaking and overflowing, which poses a significant fire hazard to riders and property. One fire incident has already been reported.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ARGO Xplorer ATVs. ARGO is contacting all known purchasers directly with instructions to contact an authorized ARGO ATV dealer for a free inspection and repair of the fuel system. The dealer will perform an inspection of the vent system, re-route and extend the vent hose, and install a fuel neck insert.
