Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Polaris is recalling about 53,000 model year 2015 RZR recreational off-highway vehicles (ROVs), including the RZR 900 and RZR 1000 series. The fuel tank vent line can be misrouted and become pinched, causing the tank to pressurize and leak fuel. Polaris has received 29 reports of fuel leaks and two reports of vehicles catching fire, resulting in one minor burn injury. Affected vehicles were sold in various colors at Polaris dealers nationwide from July 2014 through August 2015 for between $12,800 and $23,500. Consumers should contact a dealer for a free repair.

Risk

A pinched vent line can cause the fuel tank to over-pressurize, leading to fuel leaks. These leaks pose a serious fire hazard to riders, and have already resulted in two vehicle fires and one burn injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled RZR vehicles and park them outdoors until they can be inspected and repaired.
  2. Check your vehicle for model names RZR 900, RZR S 900, RZR 900 XC, RZR 4 900, RZR XP 1000, RZR XP 1000 Mudder, or RZR XP4 1000.
  3. Locate the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the driver's side rear frame tube, behind the PVT cover, to see if it falls within the recalled ranges: 4XAVBE874FB201435 through 4XAVAA878FB961699, 3NSVBE870FF361395 through 3NSVBE875FF444241, or 4XAVFE993FB207778 through 4XAVFE991FB962847.
