On certain ATVs, the rear brake caliper carrier support could crack and/or the front brake master cylinder plunger (piston) may not return properly. This could lead to a loss of rear brakes and/or front brakes, which could result in a vehicle crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will install updated rear brake caliper carrier supports and front brake master cylinder plunger return spring.
