Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Polaris is recalling about 5,600 Phoenix 200 all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) from model years 2014 through 2017. The throttle limiter on these vehicles can be damaged during shipping and fail, which could lead to a loss of control and a crash. Polaris has received nine reports of damaged throttle limiters, including one report of a failure that caused minor injuries. These ATVs were sold in blue and gray at Polaris dealers nationwide between July 2013 and April 2018.

Risk

A damaged or failed throttle limiter can prevent the driver from properly controlling the vehicle's speed, significantly increasing the risk of a crash and potential injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled Phoenix 200 ATV and locate the model number on the vehicle frame to see if it is A14PB20AF, A15YAP20AF, A16YAP20AF, or A17YAP20A8.
  2. Check the vehicle identification number (VIN) on the Polaris website at www.polaris.com to confirm if your specific vehicle is included in the recall.
  3. Contact Polaris at 800-765-2747 from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. CT Monday through Friday for instructions on how to inspect your ATV for a damaged throttle limiter.
  4. If you identify damage during your inspection, or if you prefer a professional inspection, contact an authorized Polaris dealer to schedule a free repair.
