John Deere is recalling about 8,500 Gator™ Utility Vehicles, models XUV590i and XUV590i S4, because a part on the throttle cable can come loose. This defect can prevent the vehicle from slowing down or stopping as expected, which has been reported twice. These vehicles were sold at John Deere dealers nationwide from January 2016 through March 2017 for between $10,000 and $12,900. Consumers should stop using these vehicles and contact a dealer for a free repair.
The dust boot on the throttle cable can detach, causing the throttle to stick. This prevents the vehicle from slowing down or stopping when the driver releases the pedal, posing a serious risk of a crash.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled utility vehicles and contact a John Deere dealer for a free repair. John Deere is contacting all registered owners of the recalled vehicles directly.
