What's the hazard?

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.

Your remedy & how to claim it

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. (Remedy: Repair)
