Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20111215-E9AFC-2147472310. Matched catalog product: Toro 38282. Incident: I purchased a Toro Power Clear 180 single stage snow blower from our local Ace Hardware store on November 22, 2009. Since then I've had the unit into the repair shop four times for a leaking carburator. Not dripping gas, flowing gas. Dates on the invoice are 2/9/10, 1/17/11, 5/19/11 and 7/27/11. I haven't put any gas in the unit from the 7/27/11 repair until last weekend. FOUR DAYS LATER THE [REDACTED] THING IS LEAKING GAS AGAIN !!!!!!!
