CPSC Recall in 2010: BRP Recalls Snowmobiles Due to Laceration Hazard from Projectiles
See the recall details below. You can also see similar information for other consumer product recalls in 2010.
The recall involves Ski-Doo model year 2009-2010 SKANDIC SWT V-800 and model year 2010 GSX 1200, GTX 1200, MXZ 1200, and Renegade 1200 Snowmobiles. The model name and number are displayed on the engine compartment and the serial number is on the right side of the vehicle below the seat on the frame.
The drive pulley bolts on the snowmobiles can break due to oil contamination during the assembly process. This can cause debris to come off the vehicle and act as projectiles, posing a laceration hazard to riders or bystanders.
Repair
BRP has received three reports of projectiles flying off of the snowmobiles, including one report of a minor foot injury.
