Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20141222-59D49-2147437661. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Ryobi SA1802. Source model text: SA1802KF. Incident: I was using my Ryobi 18v Cordless Drill when it began to spark and smoke. I was using it to fix a squeaky floor and discontinued use out of fear of a fire. I contacted the company and they told me that the drill is out of warranty and I needed to buy a new motor. I asked about the fire risk and they told me to not use the drill.
