Polaris Scrambler XP 1000: Powertrain
Affects Polaris Scrambler XP 1000 · 2014–2017 — about 1K vehicles.
The hazard
On certain ATV’s, the throttle release switch (TRS) may have been calibrated incorrectly. If the throttle were to become stuck, the TRS may fail to activate and may not release the throttle as designed. A stuck throttle may result in high vehicle speeds and make it difficult to slow or stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will update the vehicle software to correct the TRS detection.
