Incident narrative
SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20120406-A2254-2147468613. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Toro 38282. Incident: I bought a snow blower Toro Power Clear 180, model 38282, serial 311023591 in 10/2010. I used it once in 3/2011 and followed the exact instructions in the manual before storage. Last week, I found gasoline leaked out from the caburator to my garage floor. This serial is not included in the recall but it should be because it has the same problem as those that were recalled.
