Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Yamaha is recalling approximately 2,520 snowmobiles including model year 2014 and 2015 SRViper models. The fuel hose joint can leak during operation, which poses a serious fire hazard to the rider and bystanders. There have been four reports of fuel leakage to date, though no injuries have been reported. Consumers should stop using these vehicles and contact an authorized dealer for a free repair.

Risk

A fuel hose joint may leak fuel while the snowmobile is being operated. This leakage can lead to a fire, creating a significant risk of property damage, injury, or death.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify your snowmobile model by checking the lower left and right cowling just below the word 'YAMAHA' for model numbers SR10R (SRViper), SR10RXS (SRViper RTX SE), SR10L (SRViper LTX), SR10LS (SRViper LTX SE), or SR10XS (SRViper XTX).
  2. Verify the model year by locating the VIN number stamped on the tunnel near the right side footrest. A letter 'E' in the 10th position indicates a 2014 model, and a letter 'F' indicates a 2015 model.
  3. Immediately stop using the recalled snowmobile.
  4. Contact a local Yamaha snowmobile dealer to schedule a free repair. Yamaha is also contacting registered owners directly.
