Polaris has recalled approximately 42,500 model year 2014 Ranger 900 recreational off-highway vehicles (ROVs) because the heat shield can fall off, causing the vehicle to overheat and catch fire. There have been 36 reports of these vehicles catching fire, resulting in three minor burns and one sprained wrist. The affected units were sold in various colors with either three or six seats between April 2013 and June 2014. Polaris is offering a free repair to all owners of the affected vehicles.
The vehicle's heat shield can detach during use, exposing internal components to high temperatures that can lead to fires. This poses a significant risk of fire and burn injuries to the driver and passengers.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ROVs and contact Polaris to schedule a free repair. Polaris is contacting all known purchasers directly.
