Why is it being recalled? (Hazard)
The recalled snowmobile's drive clutch can break, allowing fragments to escape the snowmobile shielding, posing a laceration hazard.
What should I do? (Remedy)
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled snowmobiles, and contact Arctic Cat to schedule for a free installation of an additional clutch guard and inspection of the primary clutch. If the primary clutch is cracked, Arctic Cat will replace it free of charge.
