Polaris is recalling about 82 of its 2013 Pro-RMK 600 and 800 snowmobiles because a bolt on the front left shock can fail. If this bolt breaks, the operator can lose control of the vehicle, creating a serious risk of a crash. These snowmobiles were sold in red, white, and black at Polaris dealers nationwide between August and October 2012 for prices ranging from $10,800 to $12,500. No incidents or injuries have been reported to date.
The bolt attaching the front lower left shock to the vehicle can fail during operation. This causes the suspension to collapse or shift, leading to a sudden loss of steering control and an immediate risk of a crash, injury, or death.
Consumers should immediately stop using the vehicles and contact any Polaris snowmobile dealer to schedule a free repair. Polaris has notified registered consumers directly about this recall.
600 PRO RMK 155
800 PRO RMK 163 and 163 ES
