The product, in the report: Riding Lawnmower
The consumer says the gas tank along the seams, started leaking near the on and off valve. The consumer says he repaired it. The consumer says it started leaking again. He says the crack is so long now along the seams where it is molded together that he cannot get it fixed. The consumer says the unit also poses a tipping hazard. The consumer tried to contact manufacturer but was never able to reach anyone. The consumer’s product is similar to recall listed in release # 02-124, however the consumer’s serial number is out of range of the recall.
