FNA Group is recalling about 2,930 Simpson Gas Pressure Washers with model number PS61264. The lithium battery in the unit's electric start system can overheat, posing a risk of burns or fire. There have been two reports of batteries overheating and damaging the pressure washers, though no injuries have been reported. These units were sold exclusively at Lowe's from March 2023 through July 2023 for approximately $1,100.
The lithium battery in the electric start system can overheat during use. This creates a burn hazard to the user and a fire hazard that can damage the equipment or surrounding structures. Two incidents of overheating have already been reported.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled gas pressure washer and contact FNA Group Inc. for instructions on how to have their unit repaired free of charge at an authorized repair facility. The repair will replace the lithium battery in the electric start system with a sealed lead acid battery.
The Simpson logo, 'Pro Series' and '4400 PSI' are printed on the handle. The model number is printed on a silver label on the unit's frame.
