Affected Component

Repair Action

Z-16-01-C

Voltage Regulator

Replace the voltage regulator to decrease the risk of it overheating

Z-16-01-E

Not been a good couple of years to be a Polaris dealer. What kills me is the undying devotion of the people that keep buying them. We got people scared of the tiny percent of pioneers with clutch problems, yet more and more rzrs and rangers are being sold.

It is amazing to me. I have been at Abernathy's during a recall and people calling every 5 min and pitching a fit about why they can't go ahead and buy a machine instead of waiting until the recall is completed.

Me, after I found out all the recalls, I would have been calling about a Honda or a Yamaha instead..

I agree, if Honda would take care of the two bad issues they have, heat and needs a low reverse gear, on existing models , let me back up, they can't do anything about low reverse gear, without redesigning a new trans., But on new models they can and put decent shocks on.
