The hazard

Issue: Certain ATVs may be missing a bushing to support the steering column. Over time, this could cause the dynamic power steering (DPS) shaft to break, which would result in a loss of steering. Safety Risk: A loss of steering control can create the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: BRP will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your ATV to a dealership to inspect, and if necessary, repair the steering column half bushings.
