Kawasaki is recalling about 11,000 Teryx4 750 4x4 recreational off-highway vehicles from the 2012 and 2013 model years. Debris like sticks can break through the vehicle's floor boards and enter the foot rest area, posing a puncture or impact injury hazard to the driver and front passenger. Kawasaki has received four reports of this occurring, including two injuries involving riders' toes and thighs. These vehicles were sold at Kawasaki dealers nationwide between October 2011 and July 2014 for approximately $13,400.
The floor boards on these vehicles lack sufficient strength to prevent sticks or other trail debris from breaking through the plastic. If debris penetrates the floor, it can suddenly protrude into the cabin, potentially impaling or injuring the feet or legs of the operator and passenger.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled vehicles and contact and authorized Kawasaki dealer to schedule a free repair, consisting of the installation of floor board guards.
