What happened

Kawasaki Motors Corp. USA is recalling certain Brute Force™ 750 4x4i ATVs manufactured between April 26, 2004 and September 10, 2004. The recalled vehicles have a safety defect in which the nut securing the front upper suspension arm pivot bolt can loosen during use. If this happens, the bolt could back out partially, causing the rider to lose steering control and potentially crash, resulting in injury or death.

If you own a Kawasaki Brute Force 750 4x4i ATV from this time period, you should stop using it immediately and contact your Kawasaki dealer to schedule a free inspection and repair.

Hazard

On some units, the nut which secures the front upper suspension arm pivot bolt could come loose during vehicle use. Continued use of the vehicle could allow the nut to come off, and the upper suspension A-arm pivot bolt to back partially out. This would result in a loss of steering control, and possibly cause the rider to crash and suffer injury or death.

What should I do?

Consumers should stop using the ATVs immediately and contact their Kawasaki dealer to schedule an appointment for a free inspection and repair.
