Approximately 6,200 A&I tractor canopies are being recalled because they do not meet design specifications and can cause a tractor's Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS) to fail. The recalled canopies are steel attachments sold in green, blue, orange, red, and dark red that bolt onto the tractor's safety frame. They were sold at John Deere dealers and other retailers nationwide from September 2016 through April 2018. Consumers should immediately stop using tractors with these canopies installed and contact an authorized John Deere dealer for a free repair.
If the tractor rolls over, the defective canopy can cause the safety rollover frame to fail, leaving the operator unprotected and significantly increasing the risk of serious injury or death. While no incidents have been reported, the hardware and mounting brackets do not meet the structural standards required for rollover protection.
Consumers should immediately stop using tractors with a recalled canopy and contact an authorized John Deere dealer for a free repair.
