Recall: John Deere Lawn Tractor

On August 29, 2006, the CPSC announced the recall of about 16,000 John Deere lawn tractors (X300 Select Series).   A problem in the manufacturing process could cause damage to the circuit in the interlock module. If the interlock module fails, the mower blades will be able to run with no operator on the tractor seat. Consumers could suffer injuries from contact with operating blades.

The recalled John Deere X300 Select Series lawn tractors are green with yellow seats and wheels. The following model and serial numbers can be found on the serial number plate on the tractor’s frame, which is located just above the front wheel axle on the right side of the tractor.

  • X300: M0X300A012380 – 012875
  • X300: M0X300C020339 – 024949
  • X300: M0X300D011842 – 012375
  • X304: M0X304A013047 – 013964
  • X320: M0X320A017344 – 020858
  • X324: M0X324A012658 – 013220
  • X340: M0X340A012667 – 013498

The recalled John Deere lawn tractors were sold at authorized John Deere dealers nationwide from April 2006 through May 2006 for between $2,800 and $5,000.
