I was on Woods' website looking for something and saw this recall. I know several of you have their backhoes so I thought I would pass this along in case you wanted to check into it.

Nevermind, I called Woods about something else and asked them about the recall and they said it should not be on their site anymore. That will teach me to post something before checking into it!
