You manufacture a product with components of poor quality that are very dangerous. The product is a miter saw model C12FDH but the defective components listed below are probably present on other models of your miter saws. The defective parts are sub fence a, part #325-270 and sub fence b, part #325-271. Both of these pieces broke on my saw within 10 minutes of each other and came off with tremendous force that fortunately flew into the wall instead of toward me…… I have read several reviews expressing the exact problem, and I’m pretty sure if you checked, you would find that these are the two parts most often ordered for replacement on the saws that use them. In my opinion, there should be, at the very least, a consumer alert, or more likely a recall on these components before someone is seriously injured, if that hasn’t already occurred.

I have a hitachi power tool issue that I would like to pass along to the highest corporate level possible. Can you please supply that information. I think anyone interested in quality at Hitachi should read my story. Thank you.
