What was recalled

Model number 7252, 7254, 7264, or 7304 is written on the hood of the tractor.

Hazard

The tractor's high/low shift lever could pop out of gear into neutral during operation on steep slopes with attachments, such as a back-hoe or front-end loader installed. This could result in the machine "free-wheeling" until the brake is applied or the transmission is re- engaged, posing a risk of the operator losing control of the tractor.

Injuries

None reported.

Made in

United States

Where it was sold

  • Authorized Cub Cadet dealers nationwide, from May 2002 through mid-October 2003, for between $10,000 and $14,300.
