in march my mower stoped, walker advised no parts in the country for 12 weeks (WHAT)
the only option a new motor $4500, the mower is 2 years 11 months old 11months out of warrenty.
I got the old motor back and on inspection found it had a cracked cam gear (NO WAY) therefore the cam gear was cracked when I brought the mower, took photos sent them to walker. This week August, walker have offered me $900 as this is what the parts would have cost (WHAT) was I spose to rebuild it myself, whilst unemployed.
Anyway also the mechanics report says he was very suprised it had done 1200hrs as it was in near new condition -- he did not report the cracked cam gear. Not suggesting anything doggie just that you wouldent look for that because it can not happen.
I would also like to point out that i have owned walkers for over 25 years and love them,
So any comments, yes out of warrenty But this machine had a major manufactuer fault when i brought it and one would hope that it is the first time it has happened, and if my partner was not motor savy we may have never knowen. Should walker front up with the total cost, dos anyone think $900 is fair
