When first filling the recalled generator with gasoline, fuel can leak from the carburetor posing a serious risk of injury or death from fire or burn hazard. Members with generators that have previously been filled with enough gasoline to move the gauge off “E” or have been used without any gasoline leakage, can continue use.
The affected serial number range is: 3016786070 – 3016788388.

If your item is impacted by this recall and has either not yet been filled with fuel or exhibited leakage after fueling as described above, please contact your dealer to arrange for a free repair at the dealer’s location. Alternatively, members may return the item to your local Costco for a full refund.
