Polaris Industries is recalling 10,658 model year 2017-2019 Polaris Slingshot S, Slingshot SL, Slingshot GT LE, and Slingshot SLR motorcycles.
In the event of a crash, the seatbelt retractor on the side opposite of the impact may separate, preventing the seatbelt from locking.
If the seat belt does not lock, the occupant may not be properly restrained, increasing the risk of injury.
What to do
Polaris will notify owners, and dealers will install a kit that prevents the retractor from separating in the event of a crash, free of charge.
The recall is expected to begin August 28, 2018.
Owners may contact Polaris customer service at 1-855-863-2284. Polaris' number for this recall is T-18-03.
