KYMCO UTVs Recalled For Fire Hazard

KYMCO USA, in cooperation with the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), is recalling nearly 1,900 UTVs produced from 2009 to 2012.  The vehicles are being recalled because “…an exposed portion of the exhaust system can allow debris such as leaves, brush or other flammable materials to enter the opening and ignite, posing a fire hazard.”  While there have been three reports of fires, no injuries have been reported.  Models involved in the recall include the UXV 500, 500 LE, and 500 SE and the UXVi 500, 500 LE, and 500 SE.  Check the following link for specific VINs involved.  KYMCO dealers will be installing repair kits for free.  Learn more:  CPSC.gov
