2010 Bad Boy Xt Lsv Recall 10V367: Differential Bracket

Recall 10V367 affects 16 2010 Bad Boy Xt Lsv vehicles for a rear differential support bracket defect. Free repair at any franchised Bad Boy dealer.

Bad Boy is recalling 16 2010 Xt Lsv low-speed vehicles because the rear differential support bracket on models with Team rear differentials can bend from metal fatigue under extreme operation. If the bracket bends, steering can be compromised and crash risk increases; the Bad Boy dealer repair will be free once available.

What's wrong?

The rear differential on the 2010 Bad Boy Xt Lsv sends drive power to the rear wheels and lets those wheels turn at different speeds. A support bracket holds that differential in position under the vehicle. The bracket has to stay rigid while the driveline moves under load.

On the recalled Xt Lsv models with TEAM rear differentials, extreme operation puts repeated stress on the rear differential support bracket. That stress creates metal fatigue, which means the metal weakens after repeated loading. Once fatigue sets in, the bracket bends instead of holding the differential firmly in place.

There is no warning sign before failure. An owner should not expect a light, sound, or clear change in driving feel before the bracket has already begun to bend.

What's the safety risk?

If the rear differential support bracket bends, steering control can be compromised, increasing crash risk. There is no warning sign listed before the bracket bends, so drive cautiously and schedule the recall work soon. Repair will be free at any franchised Bad Boy dealer once available.

What should I do?

  1. Check your VIN to confirm your 2010 Bad Boy Xt Lsv is included in this recall.
  2. Contact Bad Boy customer service at 1-866-678-6701 to confirm the current dealer repair path for this older recall.
  3. Ask a franchised Bad Boy dealer about the free rear differential support bracket replacement that fixes the bracket bending risk tied to steering control.

  5. Avoid extreme operation until the repair is complete.

What happens at the repair

At the dealer, a Bad Boy technician replaces the rear differential support bracket. That bracket supports the rear differential, and replacement addresses the fatigue bend described for Xt Lsv vehicles with Team rear differentials. The campaign notice says the recall began on October 6, 2010, but the current remedy status is not listed here. Confirm parts and scheduling with a Bad Boy dealer. The dealer repair will be free once available.
