Honda is recalling around 118,600 Pioneer 700 and 1000 recreational off-road vehicles (ROVs) because they can lose steering control.
No injuries or accidents were reported, but Honda said it received 8 reports of the ROVs suffering loss of steering control, or having play in the steering.

Honda is asking consumers to stop using the recalled ROVs and contact an authorized Honda Powersports dealer to schedule an appointment for a free inspection and repair, if necessary
