  1. No one hurt

    Made Apr 23, 2015, sent to the company Apr 30, 2015, published by CPSC May 21, 2015

    The product, in the report: Toro Recycler 22 inch self propelled walk behind mower with Kohler Courage motor 149cc

    I have purchased two Toro 22 inch recycler mowers from Home Depot. #1 was purchased in 2013 and #2 was purchased in 2014. Both mowers developed significant fuel leaks around the fuel cap after one season of use. #1 was taken to a repair center in the summer of 2014 and required a new fuel tank. The repair center stated that the was a defect on the tank where the fuel cap screwed on. It took approximately one month to repair due to the tank being on back order. That is why #2 was purchased. #2 developed the same problem in the spring of 2015. Both mowers were stored in a garage out of direct sunlight. The fuel leaks are bad enough to be fire hazards. A search of the Internet has revealed that others have had the same issue. The mowers are powered by Kohler Courage motors.
