If you’ve been hurt by loose pieces flying out of a recalled leaf blower or vacuum, please take the steps listed below. This is crucial to safeguarding your health, as well as your right to sue the manufacturer:

- Go to the hospital within 72 hours to receive treatment for your injuries and prevent severe complications. You must also have proof of the harm you suffered from the accident, which is another reason to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
