On certain side-by-side UTVu2019s, the throttle cable could come into contact with the exhaust pipe, melting the cable's plastic lining. This could cause the throttle cable to stick once it has cooled, potentially affecting throttle control and increasing the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: dealers will inspect the throttle cable routing and replace the cable if necessary.
