Husqvarna grass trimmer class action settlement

Husqvarna has agreed to a class action lawsuit settlement of an undisclosed amount to resolve claims that certain gas-powered grass string trimmers were defective and posed a fire hazard.

The Husqvarna settlement benefits consumers who purchased a Husqvarna gas-powered grass string trimmer with model numbers 130C (SKU 970514301, 970514302, 970514303, 970694601, 970694701), 130L (SKU 970514401, 970514402, 970514403, 970694801, 970694901) and 330LK (SKU 970514501, 970514502, 970514503, 970514504, 970545001) on or before Nov. 13, 2023.

The class action lawsuit claimed that the defect in question could cause an electrical spark or arcing, which posed a fire hazard if gas was on or near the unit. The plaintiff in the case argued that Husqvarna should have known about the defect and warned consumers before they purchased the trimmers.

Husqvarna is a lawn care company that sells a variety of products, including gas-powered grass string trimmers.

Husqvarna hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to pay an undisclosed sum to resolve these allegations.

Under the terms of the Husqvarna settlement, class members can receive a $45 voucher for each class product that is brought in for repair or replacement of the ignition module at an authorized Husqvarna dealer within 90 days of Oct. 3, 2025. Members must submit a claim form by Jan. 2, 2026, to receive a voucher.

Class members can also receive a one-year extension to the limited product warranty if they bring their class product in for a repair or replacement of the ignition module within one year of Oct. 3, 2025.

Members are also entitled to a three-year extension of the limited product warranty for parts and labor on the ignition module if they bring in their class product for a repair or replacement within one year of Oct. 3, 2025.

The deadline for exclusion and objection is Dec. 2, 2025.

The final approval hearing for the Husqvarna grass trimmer class action settlement is scheduled for Feb. 2, 2026.

To receive settlement benefits, class members must first participate in a Consumer Product Safety Commission recall by receiving a free repair through a Husqvarna authorized dealer. Class members must then return to fill out a claim form by Jan. 2, 2026.
