## What the record says

- **Product**: This recall involves certain VINs of Model Year 2022 MATRYX RMK, INDY, SWITCHBACK, VOYAGEUR, and NORDIC PRO snowmobiles. The recalled snowmobiles were sold in the following color combinations: black/titanium, red/black, blue/white/red, black/gray/blue, gray/lime, red/black/white, navy/silver/white, white/black/plum, tan/black/orange, gray/black/lime, gray/black/red, orange, black and jade. Polaris and model name are printed on the chassis on both sides of the vehicles. The model year and VIN are stamped on the right side of the tunnel. Consumers can enter their VIN at www.polaris.com/en-us/off-road-recalls/to see if your vehicle is included in any recalls.
- **Reason**: The throttle release switch (TRS) can fail to disengage when the throttle lever is released and if a stuck throttle condition occurs when the TRS fails to disengage, it can lead to loss of vehicle control, posing a crash hazard. Additionally, on certain Model Year 2022 MATRYX RMK snowmobiles, the throttle cable can be kinked during installation, which can lead to damage of the throttle cable during operation and impairment of the throttle function, posing a crash hazard.
- **Classification**: Not supplied
- **Recalling firm**: Polaris Industries Inc., of Medina, Minnesota
- **Quantity**: About 7,400 (In addition, about 3,647 were sold in Canada)
- **Agency-reported status**: Published recall notice
- **Source record identifier**: 22729
