Has anyone had a problem with the front end? I recently had the front carrier hub (strut and a- arm connection) break off for no apparent reason. Fortunately, I was only riding about 5-6 mph, but 10 minutes prior I was cruising down a dirt at about 30mph, thankfully it didn't happen then. It would'nt have been a pretty site. The hubs seem to have a poor structual design ( thin metal at lower ball joint).It was covered by warranty, but it is still a little scary riding it now. I've contacted Polaris and hopefully they will do some research on it.

Yes this happened to me and it jamed so I could not steer. I also had the gas tank slip down. Have you or anyone else had these problems. I have had my Hawkeye 300 for 4 months and I am not very happy with it. Any suggestions

my suggestion is to trade it for another polaris if you want to get another utility quad, otherwise trade it for a arctic cat dvx400.

ive had my dvx for a good while now after trading in my hawkeye and i havent had a singe break down yet.
