CFMOTO Recreational Off-Highway Vehicles
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The fuel line fitting on the vehicles can fail to securely lock onto the fuel injector inlet. This can allow fuel to spill onto the hot engine parts and ignite, posing a fire hazard.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — Fire or burn risk.
