Model Year 2023-2025 Ranger XP 1000 NorthStar and Ranger XP 1000 NorthStar Crew Recreational Off-Road Vehicles (ROVs) Recall — Polaris Industries Inc., of Medina
Polaris Industries Recalls Ranger XP 1000 NorthStar and Ranger XP 1000 NorthStar Crew Recreational Off-Road Vehicles Due to Injury Hazard
Recall Description
This recall involves certain VINs of Polaris Model Year 2023-2025 Ranger XP 1000 NorthStar and Ranger XP 1000 NorthStar Crew ROVs. The recalled vehicles were sold in black, blue, brown, camouflage, gray, orange, red, tan and white. The vehicles were sold in three and six-seat configurations and have "POLARIS" stamped on the front grille. The VIN is printed on the left rear frame (on the driver's side of the vehicle) under the cargo box.
Hazards Identified
- The lower seat belt anchor fasteners were not properly tightened, which can result in the seat belt separating from the vehicle frame, failing to protect riders. Without that protection, riders can be ejected from the vehicle in a crash, posing an injury hazard.
Consumer Remedy
- Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ROVs and contact an authorized Polaris dealer to schedule a free inspection and repair at the dealer's location. Polaris advises that consumers may continue to operate the recalled ROVs prior to inspection and repair at the dealer, only if they conduct an inspection by following the Seat Belt Fastener Verification Instructions located on the firm's website. To continue operating the recalled ROVs prior to getting the repair, the fasteners must be secure where the seat belt anchor is attached to the vehicle frame. Polaris has contacted registered owners directly.
