Kawasaki Motors Manufacturing Corp. USA is recalling about 954 model year 2023 FR730V, FR691V, and FR651V engines used in various riding lawn mowers. These engines were installed in mowers sold under the Ariens, Gravely, Husqvarna, John Deere, and RedMax brands. The recall was initiated because the fuel tubes may have been damaged during a repair process, creating a risk of fuel leaks. Consumers should immediately stop using any equipment powered by these engines and contact Kawasaki to receive a free repair. No incidents or injuries have been reported to date.
A damaged fuel tube can result in a fuel leak, which poses significant fire and burn hazards to the operator or anyone nearby. If gasoline escapes the fuel system and ignites, it can lead to property damage or serious physical injury.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled engines used in lawn and garden equipment and contact Kawasaki Motors Manufacturing Corp. USA for a free repair.
Used in Ariens (IKON, IKON Onyx, Apex), Gravely (ZT X, ZT XL, ZT HD, ZT HD Stealth), Husqvarna (TS142TXD, TS242TXD, TS242XD, Z248F, Z254F), John Deere (Z330M, Z330R), and RedMax (RZT48) mowers. See firm website for full list of affected serial numbers.
