Affects Lock & Ride Passenger Backrest · — — about 14K vehicles.
The hazard
If the passenger backrest fails while the motorcycle is in motion, it may increase the risk of a crash.
What to do
Polaris will notify owners, and dealers will mail a recall notice to all registered owners of any 2010 through 2013 Victory Cross Roads, Cross Country, Cross Country Tour, and Hard Ball motorcycles. If they have, or have had, an affected passenger backrest/luggage rack combination installed on their motorcycle, the backrest and luggage rack will be replaced, free of charge. Polaris will mail an interim letter to owners in September 2013. Owners will be mailed a follow up notification in Spring 2014, when parts are expected to be available, so they may schedule the repairs. The recall began on May 21, 2014. Owners may contact Polaris at 1-888-704-5290.
