All-terrain vehicles
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
KYMCO is recalling model year 2013, 2014, and 2015 MXU 700 all-terrain vehicles in standard, LE, and Camo versions due to a fuel cap venting defect. In hot environments or high elevations, the fuel cap can fail to vent properly, causing fuel to heat up and pressure to build in the tank. This pressure can cause the fuel tank to rupture or fuel to boil out onto the operator or hot engine, potentially resulting in burns or fire.
Consumers with affected ATVs should immediately stop using them and contact an authorized KYMCO dealer for a free repair. The dealer will collect the original gas cap to confirm the repair has been completed. Affected vehicles can be identified by checking the vehicle identification number (VIN) located on the frame behind the right front wheel; the 10th digit indicates model year (D=2013, E=2014, F=2015), and the last six digits must fall within the specified ranges for each model year listed in the recall notice.
