The hazard

On certain ATV’s equipped with Dynamic Power Steering (DPS), the steering shaft could break. This would result in a loss of steering control, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the DPS unit with an updated DPS unit. Note: In the interim, owners are advised to stop riding their ATV until the defect has been repaired, or unless the interim repair was performed allowing for limited use.
