Polaris recalls 2024 Ranger, ProXD and Bobcat UTVs due to risk of seat belt anchor point failure during crashes. Owners must stop carrying passengers and get free repairs.
The vehicles' passenger side seat belt anchor point can separate from the frame due to a defective weld on the bracket, posing an injury hazard to passengers from impact with a loose bracket or failure of the seatbelt during a crash.
