Lawn Mower Horsepower Overstatement Class Action

CONSUMER LAW GROUP has launched a class action lawsuit against John Deere, Tecumseh, Briggs & Stratton, Kawasaki, MTD, Toro, Honda, Electrolux, Husqvarna, Kohler, Sears, and Platinum Equity on behalf of individuals who own a gas lawn mower with an engine of less than 30 horsepower.

The class action is based on these companies secretly conspiring to advertise and sell their lawn mowers and engines at a higher horsepower than their actual true horsepower, thereby artificially inflating the sale price to consumers.

The lawn mowers involved include:

o All those containing a gas combustible engine with less than 30 horsepower
