Polaris Industries Recalls Snowmobiles Due to Crash Hazard (Recall Alert)
CPSC recall 22729. Recall date: .
Hazard, in the words of CPSC

Remedy, in the words of CPSC
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled vehicles and contact a Polaris dealer to schedule a free inspection and if needed, an adjustment of the throttle control assembly and/or a repair to replace the throttle cable (MATRYX RMK only). Polaris has notified consumers to stop riding the snowmobiles. Polaris is contacting all registered owners directly to provide more details about the repair.
