Dear Husqvarna,
I can't help but wonder if your "losses" have had a little something to do with your (still NOT "robust") frame/chassis problems on your Lawn and Garden Tractors (GT, TS).
Sorry to hear us pesky U.S. consumers expected you to honor your warranty and produce what your company claims in it's mis-leading adverts. Your corporate strategy of at least “10%” in profit may have been achieved by having a more professional and dependable consumer oriented business model.
Is this how Husqvarna plans to fix it's 16 year failed, weak, 26 lbs. GT/ TS Lawn Tractor chassis...... By quitting, because it's too challenging for them? (Chassis was started by AYP under Electrolux in 2005)
Examples over the years,
2008,
2009,
2012,
2018, My full story found here,
Sticky BEWARE OF HUSQVARNA GARDEN TRACTORS (PART 1)
2020,
This is what Johnny Products will show you, (the TS GT Husqvarna/ Craftsman Chassis is weak, the lawn tractor chassis is not)
For the rest of us, if you are planning to buy whats left of current reduced production and stock, good luck. My advice, RUN FROM HUSQVARNA.
I also wonder who will be making parts for what is already produced? MTD, Stanley Black and Decker?
You can read the CEO of Husqvarna's words here below (link). Pay attention to what Husqvarna says is important to them. Notice all of their “restructuring” plans and “losses” began in PRE-COVID years (this is not “pandemic” related loss).
