Kawasaki is expanding its recall of approximately 19,500 Teryx and Teryx4 recreational off-highway vehicles because debris like sticks can break through the floor boards. This defect has resulted in 628 incident reports, including eight reports of injuries to riders' legs and feet. The recall includes 2012–2013 Teryx4 750 models and 2014–2016 Teryx 800 and Teryx4 800 models sold in various colors at Kawasaki dealers nationwide from November 2011 through November 2015. Kawasaki is providing free repairs to install protective floor board guards.
Sticks or other trail debris can pierce the vehicle's floor board and enter the passenger compartment. This poses a serious puncture or impact injury hazard to the legs and feet of the operator and front passenger.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled vehicles and contact an authorized Kawasaki dealer to schedule a free repair, consisting of the installation of floor board guards and replacing damaged floorboards. Consumers with previously repaired vehicles should contact Kawasaki dealers to receive this additional repair.
