What this means for you

The vehicles are missing the "Maximum Loading Limit" label which can cause loads and tongue weights that are too heavy for the vehicle's trailer towing and hitch, posing a crash and injury hazards due to the excessive weight.

What you should do

  1. 1 Stop using Model Year 2021 and 2022 Kodiak 700 All-Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) right away.
  2. 2 Set it aside where it won't be used by mistake.
  3. 3 Contact Yamaha Motor Corporation U.S.A. to arrange your new instructions. See the official notice below for contact details.
  4. 4 Keep the product until your remedy is fully processed. You may need it.
Official remedy (New Instructions): Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ATVs and contact Yamaha to receive a trailer towing and hitch weight label. Yamaha is mailing the label with application instructions directly to consumers. Consumer can also contact an authorized Yamaha ATV dealer to schedule free label application. Yamaha is contacting all registered owners directly.
