The product, in the report: lawn mower
Mower slid down hill out of control. These Zero Turn mowers should be equipped or retro fitted with front brakes. There is a company that makes these brakes. Tedbrakes.com. There have been many cases of injury and even death that could have been prevented if the manufacturer’s had installed these brakes before these mowers were sold. They need to step up and take responsibility for this problem. I would be glad to speak to someone about this issue. I am an automotive instructor, ASE certified in brakes and am very familiar with how brakes work.
Thank You [REDACTED]
