Yeah but there not really giving you the whole story. Seems there's a washer in the somewhere in one of the spindles that didn't hold up, over time it gets worn and the spindle becomes a little loose and it apparently letting the blade belt jump timing and you end up with what happened to me, one broke blade the other beyond repair and a busted spindle but Toro is making all the repairs at no cost to me so I'm fine with that.

They have the parts on order so it should be done probably in the next couple of weeks, they have the parts ordered. I'm not mowing a whole lot right now so I told them there was no hurry seeing it was the end of the season and I had two other push mowers as back up I was still covered.
