Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Approximately 1,650 Country Clipper riding lawn mowers (model years 2012–2014) are being recalled because the engine ignition module can fail to ground, leading to overheating and melting. Shivvers Manufacturing has received four reports of ignition modules melting, which poses a serious fire hazard. These mowers feature 27-horsepower Kohler Command or Courage engines and were sold at Country Clipper dealers nationwide between October 2011 and May 2014 for $5,300 to $9,500. Affected owners should stop using the mowers immediately and schedule a free repair with an authorized dealer.

Risk

The mower's ignition module can fail to ground properly, causing the component to overheat and melt. This creates a high risk of the mower catching fire during or after operation, as evidenced by four reported melting incidents.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled Country Clipper riding lawn mower.
  2. Check the mower serial number plate located on the side frame rail near the foot floor pan (driver's right side) for the manufacture date and model number. Affected mowers were manufactured between October 2011 and May 2014.
  3. Verify if your mower has a 27-horsepower Kohler Command CV740 or Courage SV740 twin-cylinder engine. Command engines are dark gray with labels on the side near the air filter; Courage engines have a black shroud with the label on top.
  4. Identify your model from the following list: Challenger, Charger, Edge, Jazee, Jazee Pro, and Jazee Pro DLX. Confirm your specific model number matches one of the 37 recalled numbers, such as 2748KOJ-SR225, 2752KOJ-SR400, or 2760KOJ-1505.
  5. Contact an authorized Country Clipper dealer to schedule a free repair by calling (800) 344-8237 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday.
