Polaris issues Sportsman recall due to fire hazard

Polaris has issued a recall involving approximately 19,200 Sportsman 850 and 1000 ATVs. In affected models, the right side panel heat shield may melt, posing burn and fire hazards to riders.

In addition, in 2015 Sportsman 1000 ATVs, the exhaust springs can stretch and damage the exhaust seal, which can result in exhaust leaks and pose burn and fire hazards. 

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ATVs and contact Polaris to schedule a free repair. Polaris is contacting all known purchasers directly.
