John Deere is voluntarily recalling more than 164,000 Compact Utility Tractors across the U.S. and Canada because they can lose braking ability, posing crash hazards, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
According to John Deere, the front bell crank in the brake linkage can fail, causing the tractor to lose braking, posing a crash hazard. The company has received four reports of the brake linkage failing, including one hospitalization, two impact injuries and minor property damage to the tractors.
