Replace Murray Lawn Mower Parts on Recalled Models Now
If you own an older riding lawn mower manufactured by Murray, Inc. and
built between January 1995 and January 2002, the most important of the
Murray lawn mower parts for you to examine is the fuel tank. In March 2002,
Murray Inc., of Brentwood, Tenn., recalled more than 89,000 rear-engine
riding lawn mowers and about 6,200 mid-engine riding mowers.
The fuel tanks of these MTD Mowers were deemed faulty due to reports of
cracking and leaking. Some fires were reported as a result of the problems
with the fuel tanks. Original owners of these machines who registered their
product purchases should have been notified and the critical Murray lawn
mower parts replaced. However, if you have purchased a Murray riding lawn
mower used, or haven't taken time to replace the fuel tank, be aware it is
crucial that you make this quick fix. Do not use your Murray riding lawn
mower until you have researched recall notices and made proper repairs.
The lawn mowers recalled in 2002 all have 30-inch cutting decks. Rear-engine
models were sold under the brand names of Murray, Murray Select, Craftsman
and Wizard. Murray lawn mower parts are still available to replace the
hazardous fuel tanks. Recalled mid-engine riding mowers were sold under the
brand names Murray and Yard King.
If you own a 40-inch or 42-inch lawn tractor product manufactured by Murray,
visit the manufacturer's website to find out if your model is included in
the latest fuel tank recall. Murray lawn mower parts are also available to
replace chutes in the 10, 21 and 22-inch walk behind mowers recalled due to
problems with chutes. A chute recall has also been issued for other 30, 38,
40, 42 and 46-inch tractor products manufactured by Murray.
Murray lawn mower parts are readily available through many parts warehouses
and Murray dealers throughout the country. In order to get the best
performance possible from this affordable line of outdoor power equipment,
check for Murray lawn mower parts availability and information about parts
requirements through the manufacturer or visit the dealership where you

mower was purchased, talk to service workers at any authorized Murray
