Textron Specialized Vehicles is recalling about 3,800 Arctic Cat Alterra 600 and Tracker 600 All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) from the 2022 and 2023 model years. The A-arm on these vehicles can separate from the frame, which causes a complete loss of steering control and poses a serious crash hazard. Although no injuries have been reported, consumers should stop using these vehicles immediately. The recalled ATVs were sold in several colors, including green, gray, tan, red, white, and camo, at Arctic Cat and Tracker dealers, Bass Pro Shops, and Cabela's nationwide from May 2021 through January 2023. Owners will receive a free inspection and repair, which may include adding support brackets or replacing the main frame weldment if cracks are found.
The vehicle's A-arm can detach from the main frame during operation, leading to a sudden loss of steering control. This defect creates a significant risk of crashes and physical injuries to the operator.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ATVs and contact Textron Specialized Vehicles to arrange for a free inspection and free repair. Textron Specialized will instruct dealers to inspect the main frame A-arm mount brackets for cracks before adding the support bracket. The main frame weldment will be replaced, free of cost, along with the addition of the strengthening brackets, if the main frame A-arm mount bracket is cracking. Textron Specialized Vehicles is contacting all purchasers directly.
