Yes I have received the list of dealers that have been sent to me twice. I should not have to travel 30 plus miles to get a defective product fixed when there are so- called authorized dealers in my area.It seems this is going nowhere so for now I'm just going to continue to use this weedeater until I can get a different one. It will definitely not be a Husqvarna.Business response

Husqvarna has sold me a product with a false advertisement regarding warranty offered. Being reimbursed for what I will be charged at Bort'z is my goal, and I do not feel I am asking too much, given all the time and frustration I have spent so far trying to reach a live person or receive a resolution to emails. Brief Summary. Purchased on Amazon through Husqvarna on 10/31/2023 (order number 112-1660792-8215402). It was used twice last fall and only a few times so far this year. I have only used Husqvarna fuel designed for this, and I have receipts for everything. When I began using it this season, this new unit throttled down after 10 minutes of running, throttled up, and then throttled back down repeatedly. It will also sometimes just stall out during throttle-down. The unit is inoperable and was registered upon purchase. I have spent several hours without having Husqvarna's service warranty honored. (Excluding the time spent sending this email.) Every method of contact results in dead ends, no responses, or a referral to their website to take the mower to a service center. This link from Husqvarna service centers contains outdated and false advertisements about what centers will honor warranty service. All contacted refuse to work for them or say they should not be listed. (**********************************************)When I called the following service center, I was informed verbally that they do, in fact, honor the warranty and asked me to bring my unit to them. I took my unit to the following service center only to be told they will not do warranty work for Husqvarna but will repair my unit. This was even after I explained that I called their company before coming down and was told on the phone that they would honor my Husqvarna warranty. I had no option but to leave it there for repairs, as I could not wait any longer to get this unit functioning properly. ******* is at *****************************************************.Business response

My mother in law bought me a Z254F zero turn mower beginning of season last year. Last year before it had 25 hours on it, it was taken back to the shop it was bought for warranty service because it had ripped the blade engage wiring out and threw the clutch. Fast forward to today its happened yet again with barely 50 hours on it. Highly HIGHLY dissatisfied with the quality and durability of this mower. Nearly $4000 to be taken back for the 3rd time for warranty repair for it to probably continue happening.Business response

I was given a backpack leaf blower for christmas 2023 purchased from Lowes. I did not attempt to use the product until after the holidays and it did not work (less than 1 hour). I attempted to contact Husqvarna but the company does not answer phones, emails, or any other form of communications other than a 3rd party that will find a service center for you. So on a product with less than 1 hour on it I was directed to RJ power equipment in ********** *****. They have now had the blower since this time. They state that certain Husqvarna items have KNOWN CARBURETOR issues and they are unable to get effective replacement parts. It has now been 7 months and the product simply does not work. I am unable to get it replaced and I am unable to get it fixed. Husqvarna is non-responsive and their warranty is nothing more than a sham. This company has stolen approximately $500 from me by selling me a piece of equipment that does not work and they will not replace or warranty.Business response

We responded as we said we would, Since the Customer is unable to provide a proof of purchase receipt we have to follow our normal Warranty Process. See below for where we are on resolving this for the Customer. Even if we were to process a refund we would need the Proof of Purchase Receipt.

I am rejecting this response because:
I am rejecting this response because: Once again this is a false statement or a complete lie.
1. I was told I would have a follow up which there is no documentation that shows they followed up with me. To once again blame me is inappropriate and I assure you this company is not a victim.
2. The lack of receipt is a complete lie. The only way to obtain your registered warranty through Husqvarna is to submit an original receipt. The fact that they are now claiming I do not have one is a complete lie. I had to submit it to them to register the product. They have a copy but are lying to you all about it not being submitted.
3. Luckily I am submitting the original receipt so it should not be a problem to issue me a full refund as this appears to be the only reason they have not assisted me for 7 months.
I would like to point out to the BBB that the problem with the blower is the carburetor and they are aware of the issue with the item. This is a complete sham they are doing to their customers while dragging out repairs that are unable to be completed because the carburetors are not readily available. I look forward to receiving my refundBusiness response

Will follow up now that we have the Proof of Purchase Receipt. Can take a few days before responding back to the Customer via ********************** Incident Number 240219-000466Customer response
06/18/2024
I am rejecting this response because:
Once again they are dragging the process out and procrastinating. To state now that they have a receipt is misleading because they have always had it. This back and forth is pointless and I am not sure what purpose the BBB serves? They have done nothing for over 6 months and are creating all of this over $354+ ? Their product is defective, they cannot get it fixed, and need more time? They manufacture this product but are also unwilling to replace it to resolve their known defective issue that no one seems to bother pointing out.I also believe they continue to respond to make sure the burden of the follow up falls on me the consumer. It should also be noted that it appears they are unable to get follow up from their own warranty provider? So, the company that they are telling the consumer to use does not even respond to them?

Husqvarna has a blades for life program and yet they have a glitch in the system where their warehouse wont release the orders. Each representative states it as a different issue (ie: warehouse problem, back order, awaiting approval). Its been a month of back and fourth with them and no resolve. Secondary to this issue I paid for a bagging system in which arrived damaged and I cant get them to resolve that either. This has cost us significant time and money to pay for a company to mow for us, and hiurs in the phone to attempt a resolution.Business response

06/09/2024
Again,
We are working diligently to get these orders out. This is a free order and the Customer has not lost in money. Had this been the case we would have processed a refund. We will get this order out ASAP
Customer response
06/10/2024
I am rejecting this response because:
1- the blades are free, yes. But weve been told 5-7 days not whenever you decide to ship.2- the bagger is NOT free! And weve yet to receive any response regarding this part of the issue. As per your previous response you would have refunded if we were out money- so refund it please.
3- we are out money as the mower is useless without blades and the bagging system is a need. Weve had to hire and rent equipment without these items. I am requesting a full refund of the bagging system. Understood that free orders are not your priority- its a breech of the warranty and the correspondence from your team where they stated it was express shipped on one occasion and on others we were given a 5-7 day time frame. Weve been at this for a month.
Business response
06/10/2024
No further correspondence on the Husqvarna side. Blades will be shipped soon.Customer response
06/24/2024
I am rejecting this response because:

Contacted Husqvarna using their web-based contact by email and no reply after 72 hours. Site stated within ***** hours.Issue: Husqvarna dealer sold me a new 54in zero turn lawn mower without a manual or product and manufacturer information. Went back the next day and requested the owners manual. The representative stated they were sorry they didnt provide it when I picked up the lawn mower. The rep contacted the shipping rep and they stated to download it off the Husqvarna website, but found the keys to the lawn mower. I was very upset, why should I download a manual that should be provided, and also find out I needed a key. I have pictures of the lawn mower before purchasing. I had to drive over 20 miles to the dealer one way. The rep said to contact Husqvarna customer service, they dont deal with ********************** rep, only the company directly. I want a document packet that comes with the lawn mower from Husqvarna. Maybe Husqvarna can compensate a couple gallons (4) of gas for the inconvenience. ************Business response
