Polaris is recalling about 138,000 snowmobiles from model years 2013 through 2023, specifically MATRYX, AXYS, and Pro-Ride models. Static electricity can build up inside the fuel tank, causing fuel vapors to ignite and the tank to burst during operation. There have been 30 reports of fuel tanks bursting, resulting in 16 fires and one report of a second-degree burn. Consumers should stop using the snowmobiles and contact an authorized dealer for a free replacement of the fuel tank assembly.
Electrostatic discharge inside the fuel tank can ignite vapors during operation, causing the tank to burst and posing a severe fire and burn hazard. One injury involving second-degree burns has already been reported.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled snowmobiles and contact Polaris or an authorized Polaris dealer to schedule a free repair, consisting of replacing the fuel tank assembly. Polaris has notified consumers to stop riding the snowmobiles. However, if a consumer needs to start their snowmobile in order to move it safely, they must make sure the fuel tank is full, and if it is not, they need to fill the tank with fresh gasoline. Polaris is notifying all dealers and contacting all known purchasers directly.
