Mine is in the list. With this being a heat shield behind the muffler, which we all know is right behind the intake/injection/fuel lines area I sorta wonder if this might be a contributing factor to the fires that have been reported. I say contributing because we know some of them were due to people carrying extra fuel in the cargo area, but a lot were not.

I also wonder if they shouldn't be replacing the muffler too, but who knows. As I said elsewhere I will buy the part and do the fix myself, and probably put an aftermarket slip on muffler on at the same time.

I had the call last week.
Called the dealer and they said it was the same one as April and Polaris has a problem with who has and hasn't had it done.
Check with your dealer for your recall record.
