Howard G. Smith MD, AM on Instagram: "Generac and DR Power Electric Start Pressure Washers Have Minds Of Their Own The electronic start and stop buttons malfunction and cause the unit to self-start. If the gasoline-powered pressure washer turns on in a confined space, it creates a serious risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. Affected: Generac electric start pressure washers model numbers G0089111, G0088941, and G0088951; DR Power electric start pressure washer model DPW3109DEN. About 16,260 recalled pressure washers were sold in the US and about 120 were sold in Canada at major home improvement and hardware stores, online, and through retailers including Menards, Home Depot, and Amazon between November 2021 and February 2026. Stop using these recalled pressure washer sand contact Generac at 1-800-396-9047 to arrange for a free repair at your dealer’s location. The pressure washer may still be used with the battery removed by using the pull-start option.
