Textron Specialized Vehicles is recalling about 2,670 Arctic Cat model year 2024 Catalyst 600 snowmobiles, including the ZR, Riot, and Mountain models. The steering caps that secure the handlebars can crack, potentially causing the handlebars to become unstable and resulting in a loss of control. There have been 95 reports of these steering caps cracking while being tightened during initial setup by dealers, though no injuries have been reported to date. Affected vehicles were sold at authorized Arctic Cat dealers nationwide between September 2023 and April 2024 for between $13,800 and $16,100.
The steering caps used to hold the handlebars in place can crack, causing the handlebars to become unstable or loose. This instability creates a significant crash hazard for the rider.
