4-wheeled motorised ATV quad bike
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Polaris is recalling certain 4-wheeled motorized ATV quad bikes from model years 2004, 2005, and 2006, including Sportsman and Scrambler models in various configurations and engine sizes. The vehicles were assembled with defective Electronic Control Modules (ECMs) containing a faulty fan Field Effect Transistor (FET), which is a component that controls the cooling fan. When this component fails, it typically causes the vehicle battery to drain and prevents the engine from starting, but in rare cases the ECM itself can overheat and potentially catch fire.
The importer has voluntarily taken corrective action to address this issue. The source does not specify what remedy is available to affected consumers or what steps they should take.

The product poses a risk of fire because certain vehicles were assembled with Electronic Control Modules (ECMs) that may contain a defective fan Field Effect Transistor (FET). The fan FET is an electrical component involved with the ATV’s cooling fan function. In most instances when the fan FET fails, the vehicle battery will drain and the vehicle will not start. In some instances, the defective fan FET can cause the ECM to fail and then overheat. If this were to occur, excessive heat could occur inside the ECM which could, in infrequent circumstances, progress to fire.
