Description
Four-wheel all terrain vehicle (ATV).
Risk
The product poses a risk of fire because, if operated in sub-freezing temperatures for repeated, short-run periods of time, the crankcase ventilation valve assembly may become blocked by ice, leading to excessive crankcase pressure and leakage of oil, which could catch fire if it comes into contact with the exhaust header pipe.
Measures
  • Voluntary corrective actions taken by the manufacturer
