Issue:
This recall is for winches installed on new side-by-side UTVs or sold as a dealer accessory.

On certain side-by-side UTVs, the ground connection for the winch may not have been tightened properly. As a result, when the winch is used, the ground connection could overheat and melt.
Note: This recall affects winch kit nos. 2889275 and 2889276.

Safety Risk:
A ground connection that overheats and melts could create the risk of a fire.

Corrective Actions:
To reduce the safety risk, Polaris advises that you should not use the winch until the recall repairs are completed. Polaris will notify owners in writing and advise you to take your side-by-side to a dealership to secure the ground connection.

Reading this against the source

This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Polaris: 197 in the register, and 672 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2024.
