Kawasaki Motors Manufacturing Corp., U.S.A. has recalled Model Year 2026 Teryx4 H2 and Teryx5 H2 recreational off-road vehicles because the drive converter sheave can break in certain circumstances, resulting in metal fragments being discharged within the engine compartment and surrounding area, posing impact and injury hazards. About 3,585 vehicles are affected. Kawasaki has received 19 reports of incidents involving drive converter sheave breakage, with no injuries reported.

The recalled vehicles were sold at authorized Kawasaki dealers nationwide from June 2025 through January 2026 for between $37,200 and $43,700. The vehicles are lime green and have either "Teryx4 H2" or "Teryx5 H2" on the driver and front passenger doors, with the Kawasaki logo on both sides above the rear wheels. Each unit has a unique VIN located on the right rear of the main frame underneath the rear fender and above the rear wheel.

Consumers should stop using the recalled vehicles immediately and contact a Kawasaki dealer to schedule a free repair. A technician will replace the moveable clutch sheave assembly, install a clutch cover guard, and reprogram the Engine Control Unit (ECU) on the vehicle. Kawasaki is contacting all known purchasers directly.
