The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Husqvarna Outdoor Products Inc. is issuing a voluntary recall for 174,000 lawn tractors that pose a fire hazard.
Husqvarna Outdoor Products Inc., of Augusta, Ga., formerly known as Electrolux Outdoor Products Inc., says, “The fuel line on these lawn tractors can separate from the fuel tank outlet. If this occurs, fuel will spill out, posing a fire hazard.”
Currently, Husqvarna has received 886 “reports of fuel lines that separated from the fuel tank outlet and 16 reports of fires related to this issue. There are three reports of minor personal injury.”
The tractors involved “were sold under the Husqvarna, Craftsman, Poulan Pro, Poulan, Weed Eater, Southern States and Murray brand names,” and were sold at home centers, retailers, hardware stores and dealers nationwide from September 2005 through June 2006 for between $820 and $1,500.
