Kawasaki Mule Pro FX, Mule Pro FXT and Mule Pro FXT LE MY2015-2020
Reason for Recall / Hazard
When the vehicle is operated in low temperatures, water in the catch tank and breather tube may freeze, blocking the tube. This can result in increased pressure in the crankcase, causing oil to leak from the engine head area. In addition, debris may collect on a depressed area of the exhaust manifold at an opening in the exhaust manifold cover.
