Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20250805-B1CC0-2147328894. Severity: No Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Ryobi RY401015US. Incident: I own a Ryobi 21" lawnmower that caught fire while cutting my grass. The company says it isn't part of the recall but it did the same thing the recalled ones are doing. No injuries but very lucky I was close to my water hose before it got a chance to get to the battery.
