John Deere is recalling about 240 High-Performance Gator RSX860i utility vehicles (models RSX860i TB and RSX860i TE) because the fuel hose can leak or separate when the fuel system is pressurized. This defect creates a significant risk of fire while the vehicle is in operation. These four-wheel vehicles feature side-by-side seating for two people, a green hood, and yellow rims. They were sold at John Deere dealers nationwide from June 2016 through July 2016.
A fuel leak or hose separation in a pressurized system can cause gasoline to spray onto hot engine components, potentially leading to a fire. While no incidents or injuries have been reported, this defect poses a serious safety hazard to occupants.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled utility vehicles and contact a John Deere dealer for a free repair. John Deere is contacting all registered owners of the recalled utility vehicles directly.
