Toro is recalling approximately 8,600 (plus 400 in Canada) 2015 TimeCutter riding mowers because the fuel filters can become brittle and crack. This defect allows fuel to leak, which creates a serious fire hazard. The firm has already received five reports of fuel leaking from these machines, though no injuries have been reported. These red and black mowers were sold at Home Depot and other hardware stores nationwide from November 2014 through October 2015.
The fuel filters on these mowers can fracture over time, leading to fuel leaks. If leaked fuel comes into contact with a hot engine or spark, it can ignite and cause a fire, posing a risk of property damage and serious injury.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled mowers and contact the nearest Toro dealer to schedule a free repair. Consumers with registered machines will receive a letter and a fuel filter, and may contact a Toro Dealer if they are uncomfortable with the replacement procedure.
