Outdoor power equipment maker The Toro Company, in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), voluntary recalled an estimated 84,000 Toro Snow Commander and CCR Single Stage Snowthrowers.
The recall is an expansion of an earlier recall announced in March 2003. Consumers were advised to stop the products immediately.
