    The product, in the report: Generator

    Verbiage taken from consumers’ letter sent to manufacturer This is to call your attention to a dangerous exposed part on your generator. The black metal box around the exhaust should have written on it the word HOT in red letters, and a bar or fence in front of it to prevent accidental skin contact. The word HOT should also include a message of how long, after the engine quits, one should wait before touching it. I received a severe burn from this exposed surface. This happened after I shut off the generator and was putting it away. While wheeling it with the carrying handles and maneuvering it, I somehow put my leg against that surface in my maneuvering procedure to get it over a bump. Immediately after the initial and severe pain, the area was pink and I did not think the burn was serious. But eventually it blistered, then the blister popped leaving a raw and red wound. See the enclosed photo. I eventually went to an urgent care medical center where I received treatment. See the enclosed doctor’s report (“Encounter Summary”) and the bills for $136.91 total. I hope you will be considerate and reimburse me for this unfortunate incident.

    I sent the letter with delivery confirmation and they did not reply. In November (two months ago) I contacted [REDACTED] their accountant. She was nice and tried to track down my complaint, and then forwarded my message to the company president. I still have not received any kind of reply. My two purposes are to see to it that they put more protection on this generator, and hopefully get reimbursed for my medical bill.
