Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20110701-8CA64-2147477658. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Toro 38282. Incident: I have a Power Clear 180 and I still have the leaking gas problem. I received the recall and brought it to the dealer for repair. When I got it back, it leaked gas immediately. Took it back and they replaced the carburetor. Checked a few weeks ago, and it is leaking gas again. Not sure why Toro is not doing more to correct this problem. In my opinion, this is a major safety problem.
