KYMCO Recalls ATVs Due to Burn, Fire Hazards (Recall Alert)
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
In hot environments or high elevations, the fuel cap can fail to vent properly, causing the fuel to heat up and pressure to build up in the tank. The pressure can cause the fuel tank to rupture or the fuel to boil out of the tank onto the operator or hot engine, resulting in burns to the operator or a fire.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ATVs and contact an authorized KYMCO dealer for a free repair. The original gas caps must be collected by the dealer to confirm the repair.
