Hazard

The flange, which holds the fuel pump in the fuel tank, can fail to stay connected to the tank itself. This can create a fuel leak, which poses a fire hazard to consumers.

Consumers should immediately stop using the ATV and contact their authorized Kawasaki dealer to arrange for installation of a free replacement fuel tank.

Incidents & injuries

Kawasaki has received 60 reports of fuel leaks, though no injuries have been reported.
