Polaris Industries Recalls ATV’s

Polaris Industries Inc., of Medina, Minnesota, has recalled about 11,300 Select “Outlaw IRS” ATVs, Model Year 2006-2008. A retention bolt can come loose causing the rear wheels to lock up, which poses a risk of serious injury to the rider. The firm has received 11 reports of loss of control, including one rider who suffered a strained leg muscle. The recall involves select 2006-2008 Polaris “Outlaw” ATVs with Independent Rear Suspension (IRS). The affected models are: 2006 OUTLAW 500 “IRS”, 2007 OUTLAW 500 “IRS”, 2007 OUTLAW 525 “IRS”, 2008 OUTLAW 525 “IRS”. The model name is printed on decals located on either side of the fuel tank.

The ATVs were sold at Polaris dealers nationwide from January 2006 through January 2008 for between $6,900 and $7,400. Consumers should stop using the recalled ATVs immediately, and contact any Polaris ATV dealer to schedule a free repair. Polaris has notified registered consumers directly about this recall.
