Hazard identified: Kubota has discovered that under some overheat conditions, the cap of the radiator coolant reserve tank, if restricted, can come off and high temperature coolant may spray out, posing a burn hazard.

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Kubota Ride-on Mowers, Utility Tractors and Zero Turn Mowers. Customers are to be mailed a new cap by Kubota Canada along with installation instructions. Consumers may also contact an authorized Kubota dealer for a free inspection and repair of the cap.
