Generac Recalls Portable Generators Due to Serious Fire and Burn Hazards

September 15, 2023

This recall involves Generac Portable Generators type GP15000E, with model numbers G0057341, G0057342, 005734R1, and 005734R2, and type GP17500E, with model numbers G0057351, G0057352, 005735R1, and 005735R2. “Generac” and the unit type are printed on both sides of the tank and on the control panel of the generators. The recalled generators’ fuel tank can fail to vent adequately from the rollover valve, causing the gas tank to build up excess pressure and expel fuel when opened, posing fire and burn hazards.

The Consumer Safety Product Commission (CSPC) has recalled the items listed. All subrogation professionals should make a note of these recalls. Visit the Consumer Product Safety Commission website for additional information on the recall.
