Toro Snowblowers and Mowers Recalled

Toro has issued a recall for 23,000 Toro Power Clear Snowblowers and 6,200 Toro 20" Recycler Mowers because of a potential fire risk.

The company has received approximately 500 reports of carburetor leaks which could develop fuel leaks and ignite when exposed to an ignition source, posing a fire or burn hazard to consumers.

Toro Snowblowers with model numbers 38588 and 38589 and Recycler Mower with model number 20323 are affected by the recall.  The products were sold at Toro dealers in the United States and Canada from September 2009 until March 2011.

Consumers should stop using the snowblowers and mowers immediately.
