What to do if you own this product
What is the hazard with RYOBI Electric Pressure Washers?
RYOBI Electric Pressure Washers (TTI Outdoor Power Equipment, Inc. (TTIOPE), of Anderson, South Carolina) was announced in a previous recall cycle, in the "Other" category. The pressure washer's capacitor can overheat and burst, causing parts to be forcefully ejected, posing a risk of serious injury from impact to the user or bystanders. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled pressure washers and visit https://www.ryobitools.com/recall to determine if their pressure washer is included in the recall and to receive a free repair kit, including shipping and installation instructions. The repair kit consists of a replacement capacitor. Proof of purchase (receipt) is not required. Sold at: Home Depot and Direct Tools Factory Outlet stores nationwide, and online at homedepot.com and directtoolsoutlet.com from July 2017 through June 2024 for between approximately $300 and $400.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.
