Recall Insight

This CPSC action (record #06207) was formally reported on July 11, 2006. It is classified under Moderate severity, with a current status of Active. Husqvarna Outdoor Products Inc., of Augusta, Ga., formerly known as Electrolux is listed as the recalling firm. Federal records indicate About 174,000 units are affected, a scale large enough to require multi-state distribution tracking.

The documented reason for this recall is: 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. Distribution information was not included in the agency filing, so consumers should assume broad potential exposure until the firm publishes point-of-sale details. The remedy documented by the agency is: Consumers with recalled tractors should immediately stop using the tractor and contact the applicable firm to schedule a free repair. — consumers holding this product should act on that instruction rather than relying on general guidance.

To put this record in context, PlainRecalls indexes 83,949 recalls across the FDA, CPSC, NHTSA and USDA FSIS going back to 1995. Within the same product category, the database holds 6 closely related recalls, of which 6 were also issued by CPSC. That clustering is a signal — repeated actions in a narrow category often indicate a systemic quality-control issue, a supplier-wide contamination, or a design defect that has propagated across product lines. This recall is roughly 20 years old; older recalls can remain relevant because many units enter resale, rental, and secondary-market channels where the original warning never reaches the end user. Always cross-check the recall number against the official agency page before relying on any summary.
