Polaris Recalls RANGER Off-Road Vehicles Due to Fire and Crash Hazards (Recall Alert)
Recall Description
This recall involves certain VINs of Model Year 2023 RANGER XP 1000 NorthStar and XP 1000 NorthStar Crew vehicles. The RANGER vehicles were sold in the following colors: blue, brown, camouflage, graphite and white. They were sold in three and six-seat configurations and have "POLARIS" stamped on the front grille. The model number and VIN are printed on a portion of the left rear frame (on the driver's side of the vehicle) under the cargo box.
Hazards Identified
- An improperly installed center brake line can cause the rear brake circuit to remain pressurized during operation, resulting in overheated brakes and reduced braking performance, posing fire and crash hazards.
Consumer Remedy
- Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled vehicles and contact Polaris or an authorized Polaris dealer to schedule a free inspection, and repair if needed. Polaris has notified consumers to stop riding the vehicles and is contacting registered owners directly.
