John Deere Recalls Thousands of Zero Turn Mowers Over Fire Hazard

by Harry

John Deere has issued a recall for thousands of its “ZTrak” Zero Turn Riding Mowers with Kawasaki Engines due to a potential fire risk. The company announced this week that the mowers could overheat and catch fire due to a faulty voltage regulator. While no injuries have been reported, the recall notice from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) includes five fire reports and 26 instances of melting or smoking.

The issue with the mowers stems from the voltage regulator, which can malfunction during operation or while the mower is being stored.
