John Deere has recalled about 150 zero-turn lawn mowers, including models Z445, Z645, Z655, and Z665. A fuel hose may have been cut during the manufacturing process, which can cause fuel to leak and poses a serious fire hazard. While no injuries have been reported, John Deere identified four reports of cut fuel hoses during production. These mowers were sold at independent John Deere dealers nationwide between August and November 2015 for between $4,800 and $6,500. Consumers should stop using the recalled mowers immediately and contact a dealer for a free repair.
