CPSC, Cub Cadet Corp. Announce Recall of Compact Tractors
The hazard
The tractor's high/low shift lever could pop out of gear into neutral during operation on steep slopes with attachments, such as a back-hoe or front-end loader installed. This could result in the machine "free-wheeling" until the brake is applied or the transmission is re- engaged, posing a risk of the operator losing control of the tractor.
Incidents reported: None reported.
What to do now
Consumers should contact the Cub Cadet dealership where the tractor was purchased to schedule a free repair.
Contact: Call Cub Cadet toll-free at (888) 848-6038 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday.
