Honda Recalls 20,500 Lawn Mowers

The US Consumer Product Safety Commission today announced Honda Motor Corporation’s recall of over 20,000 HRX walk-behind lawn mowers. Honda reports that they’ve “received one report of a shield breaking off the lawn mower,” though the accident resulted in no injury.
The recall includes Honda models HRX217(K)2HXA and HRX217(K)2HMA mowers with serial numbers between MAGA-1500001 and 1520532. If you own one of the affected mowers, contact your local Honda Lawn and Garden dealer to schedule a free repair.
So Honda will have to eat the cost of over 20,000 mowers because a piece of one mower broke off which may or may not have been a design defect? I wonder if someone will find a lwayer and sue anyway due to exoeriencing stress when their mower was recalled?
Hey these mowers aren’t cheap they can afford to recall a few.
