Agency product description and boundaries
This recall involves an accessory LED Light Kit containing two LED Light Bars and kit components. These accessory products are used on Hustler or BigDog ride-on mowers as an accessory light at the front of the mower. A black or yellow steel mounting bracket attaches to the mower footrest at the front of the mower and holds two LED Light Bars as headlights. The LED Light Bars are clear plastic with a white and a black wire and an orange plug at the end. They measure 6 inches wide and ¾ of an inch tall.
Still to verify: match the label on your item with the full official notice, including any exclusions, tables and photos. Some identifiers appear only on the agency website and are absent from this data feed. A missing field does not mean all versions are affected.
If your lot or date falls outside a stated range, this notice has not established that your item is affected. This is not a finding about other recalls or product safety.
2. Agency hazard and consumer action
CPSC reports: The light bars can overheat or produce flames, posing a risk of serious injury from a fire hazard.
CPSC consumer action: Consumers should stop using the accessory LED Light Kits immediately and contact their point-of-sale dealers to receive a refund upon return of the light kit. Light kits installed on mowers can be removed either at the local dealer or at the consumer’s residence.
Affected product: Accessory LED Light Kits used with certain ride-on mowers
