No one hurt Made Aug 24, 2021, sent to the company Oct 1, 2021, published by CPSC Oct 18, 2021
The product, in the report: Craftsman Walk behind, self propelled lawn mower, with grass catcher bag. Model Q47.379990
The mower’s front deck has rubberized material across the front, which connects to the plastic caps near the 2 front wheels. This rubber material has deteriorated over time and is breaking. Additionally, the metal portion of the deck, where the rubber connects to it, has developed rust and is also deteriorating. This rust has occurred on the front and rear metal deck portions of the mower.
Most of the rust has developed on the front of the deck and smaller amounts on the rear. Furthermore, the front wheels have become imbalanced as a result of this issue, and the deck can no longer be adjusted.
8/23/2021: The consumer called the manufacturer and reported his concerns. Their rep. (name unknown) told him that they would take a look at it, but the mower is no longer under warranty, so he may have to pay for any repairs. The rep. told him that the maximum warranty is 3 years. The consumer has agreed to take the mower to a local manufacturer’s authorized technician, who will examine it.
The consumer said that debris could fly out and injure someone during use. He also believes that the manufacturer has designed the mower in this fashion to use less metal and save cost.
