Warn Industries Inc. Recalls Eight-Post ATV Winch Kits for Overheating

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

A component of the winch kit, the eight-post contactor, can continue to pull current when in the "off" position, which can cause it to overheat and pose a fire hazard.

What to do

Consumers with winch kits containing these eight-post contactors should immediately disconnect the contactor wires from the battery and contact Warn Industries or their local dealer for a free replacement contactor.
