Spartan Brake Interlock Bracket

The fact that this part broke at all in the short time we have owned this mower is sad. Frankly, these items should be on a 10 year or longer warranty. Absolutely no reason it should just snap off the way it did from vibration over time I'm assuming. It never gets touched by anyone so this is apparently a normal wear item. Warning to other that this isnt the first sheet metal part on our mower that has just "snapped" off from vibration at a joint. One of our front wheel covers / wells bracket snapped off already too. We have yet to replace that one. I'll leave a similar review on that as well if we do.
