A leading producer of all terrain vehicles is recalling one of its most popular machines.
Arctic Cat is voluntarily recalling about 45-thousand of their current model ATVs because of problems with their front suspension system.
The company says the suspension's ball joints can break and cause the rider to lose control.
At least 10 people have been injured in 73 reported incidents.
The recalled 2002 model ATVs are either red or green. They have the brand name "Arctic Cat" written on both sides of the vehicle. The recall includes the following ATV model names: 250, 300, 300 Massey Ferguson, 375, 400, 400 i, 500, TBX 500 and 500i. Consumers should have their ATV's model name and 13-digit model number available when they call or visit the firm's web site to determine if an ATV is included in the recall.
