On certain ATV's, the rear suspension cushion lever mounting bracket can break under certain high-stress conditions. If the mounting bracket falls apart, the rider could lose control of the ATV, possibly resulting in injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect the frame and, if cracked, will apply a bead of weld to reinforce the bracket. If cracked beyond a specified limit, the frame will be replaced.
