Certain Carrier Bearings on Polaris RZR XP Turbo and Turbo S Vehicles
SuperATV is voluntarily recalling certain carrier bearings sold for use in Polaris RZR XP Turbo and Polaris RZR XP Turbo S vehicles (“Polaris RZR Vehicles”).
SuperATV has received reports that these carrier bearings, when installed in the Polaris RZR Vehicles, can lead to unintended contact between the fuel tank and the prop shaft (due to fuel tank swelling) when the vehicles are operated for an extended period under certain circumstances.

SuperATV is not aware of any injuries associated with this issue.
SuperATV is contacting known purchasers of these carrier bearings directly.
