CPSC, Generac Power Systems Inc. Announce Recall of Fuel Hoses Sold with Guardian Home Generators

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

The hazard

The fuel hoses can leak if bent in an unreasonable fashion during installation or upon completion of installation. If an ignition source is present, a fire or explosion can occur.

What to do

Consumers should stop using the generator if the fuel hose is bent or if the ferrules (connectors) are cracked, split or damaged in any way. Consumers with a bent hose or damaged connector should contact Generac Power Systems or a Generac authorized service dealer, to arrange for a free inspection and replacement of the flex fuel hose.
