All-terrain vehicle are fun, but they can be very dangerous if defective or misused. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, BRP U.S. Inc has recalled several all-terrain vehicles because the “dynamic power steering can fail, resulting in the sudden loss of steering control. This poses a risk of injury or death to riders.”
If you own one of these ATVs, please stop using it immediately, and do not allow anyone access to it.
