What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: Structural vehicle defect: the recalled vehicles have missing or loose fasteners on the rollover protective structure (ROPS) pillar joints that can fail to protect occupants in a rollover or tip-over. This constitutes a structural vehicle defect, the criterion for Severe classification.
