SVR’s Take<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is a large recall relative to the total sales of John Deere gator utility vehicles, even though the sales stretch over nearly two years. There have been a number of throttle related recalls in the industry the last year including a smaller Gator XUV590 recall<\/a>. This and other recalls continues the disturbing trend of a relatively high number of recalled vehicles in relation to annual industry sales.
