CPSC, Excel Industries Inc. Announce Recall of Riding Lawn Mowers

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

Excessive heat, vibrations and wear causes the fuel line to droop over time and rub against the transmission fan, causing the fuel line to be cut. This poses a fire hazard and a risk of burn injuries to consumers.

What to do

Consumers should stop using these recalled riding mowers immediately and contact their local Hustler dealer to determine if their mower is included in the recall. The dealer will reroute the fuel line and replace it if necessary.
