In September, John Deere issued a recall affecting thousands of utility tractors.
The manufacturer issued the recall on Sept. 26, affecting John Deere 1023E, 1025R and 2025R compact utility tractors.
About 147,900 tractors in the U.S., and around 16,800 in Canada, are included.
A component of the tractor could fail, losing its ability to brake.
“The front bell crank in the brake linkage can fail causing the tractor to lose braking, resulting in a crash hazard,” the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) says.
