Arctic Cat and Tracker Off-Road Vehicles Recalled for Crash Hazard

Textron Specialized Vehicles is recalling about 7,000 model year 2022–2024 Arctic Cat Prowler Pro and Tracker Off Road 800SX side-by-side vehicles because they can move while the digital dash displays "park," creating a rollaway crash hazard.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is a risk-of-harm vehicle recall where a defect creates a crash hazard. Although 12 incidents have been reported and no injuries have occurred to date, the hazard—unintended vehicle movement on an incline—represents a significant safety risk. Per the rubric, a high-risk product where injury has not yet been reported scores 3.
