The brakes can fail, posing a risk of injury or death to the operator.
Arctic Cat is recalling all 2016 turbo 9000 snowmobiles because their brakes can fail, potentially causing injury or death. This affects snowmobiles sold in black, green, orange, and white colors.
The brakes can fail during normal operation, which may cause the snowmobile to lose control and lead to crashes or injuries. This hazard is particularly dangerous because it can result in serious injury or death to the operator.
Snowmobile owners who purchased a 2016 Arctic Cat turbo 9000 model (M 9000, XF 9000, XF9000 Cross Trek, or ZR 9000) are affected. Operators of these snowmobiles face the highest risk due to potential brake failure.
Check for the brand name 'Arctic Cat' on each side of the snowmobile. Look for the model name on a decal on the top of the chassis between the seat and rear bumper. The vehicle identification number (VIN) has a 'G' in the 10th position for 2016 model year units.
Immediately stop using the recalled snowmobiles as they can fail and cause injury or death.
