Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20120228-60D68-2147469732. Matched catalog product: Toro 38282. Incident: I purchased a Toro Power Clear 180 snowblower on 1/4/10. I notified Toro on 2/21/10 and again on 3/14/10 to tell them that I could smell a gasoline leak from my snowblower (their case numbers are [REDACTED] respectively). In addition to the smell, I was very concerned about the fire hazard because I keep my snowblower in an attached garage directly beneath the bedroom area of my house.
