Polaris and Bombardier Recreational Products both announced snowmobile recalls due to defects that can pose injury risks.

The snowmobiles recall includes 3,800 Polaris snowmobiles and 5,600 from Bombardier sold in Canada.
The Polaris recall includes 2022-2024 Matryx Voyageur, Indy, Switchback, RMK and SKS snowmobiles with Patriot 650 and 850 engines. Clutch issues can lead the clutch or its components to separate from the snowmobile.

The Bombardier recall includes all 2024 Ski-Doo MXZ and Renegade snowmobiles with Pilot X skis. The left ski can break, leading to a risk of crash or serious injury.
109 Polaris clutch issue reports, 27 broken Bombardier skis, snowmobile recalls say
Polaris says it received 109 reports of clutch issues, including nine where clutch components separated and one that resulted in a laceration injury.
Bombardier says it received 27 reports in the United States of skis breaking without causing any injuries, as well as one Canadian report of injury.
The companies are not currently facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes lead to class action lawsuits.
Customers should stop using the snowmobiles immediately. Polaris says owners of its recalled snowmobiles should contact the company or a Polaris dealer for a free clutch repair. Bombardier said it will provide a free inspection and left ski replacement at dealerships.
