All of the recalled units have Tecumseh engines. PROBLEM: Lawn mowers that have a serial number beginning with a 0 may exhibit improper blade retention that could injure the operator or a bystander if the blade separates from the mower's housing. In addition, all Snapper mowers purchased after January 1, 2001, with serial numbers between 11020001-11024924, may have crankshafts that also adversely affect blade retention and require modification by a Snapper dealer. Serial numbers are located on a silver label on the rear of the deck behind the engine as indicated by an arrow in the photograph shown below. INCIDENTS/INJURIES: No reports of blade separation have been received. No injuries have been reported. WHAT TO DO: Consumers who have not received a notice from Snapper regarding this matter or have not been contacted by their Snapper dealer should stop using the MR216015T immediately and return it to the Snapper dealer where purchased for an inspection and possible repair.
