Debris can ignite on the vehicle’s exhaust manifold

Kawasaki Motors Corp. U.S.A., of Foothill Ranch, Calif., is recalling about 72,000 Kawasaki MULE PRO off-highway utility vehicles

Debris can ignite on the vehicle’s exhaust manifold.

Kawasaki is aware of more than $131,000 in property damage claims -- excluding the cost of damage to vehicles.

This recall involves model year 2015 through 2020 MULE PRO-FX, MULE PRO-FXR and MULE PRO-FXT off-highway utility vehicles.

The recalled vehicles were sold in black, blue, bronze, camo, green, red, silver and white, and have four wheels, side-by-side seating for three to six people and automotive style controls.

Mule Pro is printed on the right and left front fender. Kawasaki is printed on the cargo box. The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is located on the steel frame between the right front lower A-arm mounts.

Yamaha is recalling about 70,000 ATVs because of a problem with the tie-rod ends that could cause steering problems. Affected models include the Yamaha Bruin 250, Bruin 350 4WD and 2WD, Big Bear 400, Kodiak 400, Kodiak 450, and Wolverine 450 ATVs.

The protective boots covering the steering systems tie-rod ends (universal joints) on the recalled ATVs could be pinched during installation or adjustment, cutting a hole in the rubber. If this occurs, grease could escape, and contaminants such as sand or mud could get into the assembly through the hole, causing accelerated wear. This could result in abnormal steering free play.

If the ATV continues to be operated without repair, the ball and socket portion of the tie-rod end could wear to the point that they separate, resulting in loss of steering control, which could cause a vehicle crash with injury or death.

Below is a list of make, model and vehicle identification numbers (VIN) involved in the recall.
