Briggs & Stratton has initiated a voluntary recall on 500 Craftsman riding mowers today. This recall involves the riding mower with model number 107.28034, but only those models with the following serial numbers:

2014033403 through 2014034552

2014149995 through 2014151266

This can cause injuries or damage to property nearby. So far there has been no injuries reported due to this issue, however there was one report of a bolt coming lose, breaking a nearby window.

The mowers were exclusively sold at Sears stores between February 2010 and May 2010 for approximately $1,500. If you have one of these recalled riding mowers, Briggs & Stratton asks that you stop it’s use and call Sears to arrange for someone to fix it.
