The product, in the report: 2 seater UTV
2017: The ATV caught fire, while sitting on a trailer. It was in the off position at the time. A cylinoid, wench, underneath the seat is what caught fire. The consumer used several fire extinguishers to put out the flames.

The 2nd dealer removed the damaged parts and ordered replacement parts.
Also in 2017, the original dealer, cleaned up the machine, but did not replace the winch or broken parts. When the consumer tried to use it, the ATV began taking on water by the clutch. Plus machine was overheating with antifreeze boiling out of radiator.
The consumer then took the ATV to Krammers Service Center, in Sydney, ME, as original dealership was over 2 hours away refused to evaluate these issues.
In Mid-August-2017, the consumer discovered that the firewall between the 2 seats, melted, because the engine was getting excessively hot. Machine again brought to Kramers as original dealership refused to evaluate these issues.

NOTE: In the mean-time, the vehicle’s warranty expired.
6/2018: The consumer used the ATV and it started emitting smoke from underneath the front hood. The consumer stopped using it and contacted Krammers. She went back and forth with this service center and told them that it was not repaired properly the last time that it was brought in. When she got it back, the vehicle had been repaired.

8/2020: The oil sending unit plug malfunctioned and the machine began to rattle during use. The consumer stopped the vehicle immediately and turned it off.
