PURCHASED A WILDFIRE ATV FROM LOCAL DEALER,THIS PARTICULAR BRAND WAS NOT MANUFACTURED IN THE US. THERE ARE SEVERAL VERY VISIBLE DEFECTS ON THE ATV. UEVEN REAR AXLE TIRES GO FLAT OVERNIGHT,WIRING AND CABLES ARE SUB-STANDARD,REAR BRAKES DON'T WORK,GAS POURING OUT ON THE GROUND,NUMEROUS ISSUES. THE DEALER WE PURCHASED THE ATV FROM REPLACED THE CARBURETOR,WHICH MOST LIKELY WASN'T DEFECTIVE,AND REFUSED TO GIVE US THE OLD ONE. THE ATV IS A 2006 MODEL AND HAS LESS THAN 20 HOURS OR MILES ON IT. HAVE CONTACTED SEVERAL AGENCIES,SMALL CLAIMS COURT,ETC ALL TO NO AVAIL. WHEN ON 1 BRIEF OCCASION IT WAS RUNNING IT FLIPPED OVER ON ME,ON A VERY SMALL INCLINE AT THE END OF MY DRIVEWAY. THIS THING IS JUNK,AND THE SALESMAN ASSURED US THAT IT IS JUST AS GOOD AS A HONDA,AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE. IF WE COULD GET A PERSON WHO KNOWS RECREATIONAL VEHICLES TO LOOK AT THE ATV I AM SURE THEY WOULD KNOW THAT THIS ATV,IF IT RAN WOULD MOST LIKELY INJURE OR KILL SOMEONE. *TR

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
