They are being replaced as a recall, not a warranty issue. Whether or not a tractor has a fuel pump does not enter into determining the eligibility for the replacement cap. The few tractors that use a non-vented cap along with a separate vent do not qualify for the recall.
The law suits that precipitated the replacement of the fuel caps on most dealt with pressure building up inside the fuel tank because of plugged or restricted vents. The location of the fuel tank causes a lot of heating of the fuel in the tank resulting in the fuel being vaporized. If the vent(s) could not release enough of the vaporized fuel, pressure would build up in the tank. Removing the fuel cap causes a loss of tank pressure which in turn causes more fuel to vaporize. The escaping fuel vapor led to many fires. The new caps have two vents instead of one and came with a warning sticker that needs to be applied next to the fuel cap.
