John Deere Lawn Tractors
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
Hardware used to hold the mower blade brake assemblies on the mower decks can break. This can cause the mower blades to spin longer than normal after the operator turns off the power, posing a laceration hazard.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — Risk of severe physical injury.
