Polaris RZR Off-Road Vehicles Recalled for Fire Hazard

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a fire hazard, which is a significant risk-of-harm product defect. However, the source text explicitly states no injuries have been reported, and the hazard is based on a potential oil leak scenario. Per the rubric, when no illnesses or injuries are reported and the hazard is theoretical, the score is at most 3.

Plain-English summary

Polaris Industries Inc. is recalling approximately 1,700 Model Year 2021 RZR Pro XP and RZR Pro XP 4 recreational off-road vehicles. The vehicles were sold in black, blue, gray, red, sand, silver, titanium, and white colors, with either two or four seats. They were sold through Polaris dealers nationwide from November 2020 through June 2021 for between $23,000 and $34,000. Additionally, 90 units were sold in Canada, and some of these vehicles were previously recalled in May 2021.

The vehicles are being recalled because a raised edge on the machined surface of the turbocharger castings can result in an oil leak, posing a fire hazard. Part number 3023738 appears on a rectangular area on the passenger side of the turbocharger. A limited number of turbocharger assemblies were also sold as service parts.
