Generator box arrived in good condition so I thought no problem I'll get it going immediately. After prepping it, tried to start generator, but wouldn't start. Checked spark plug & fuel. Decided to check automatic choke to see if it was working, wasn't. I was able to start it by manually closing & opening the choke. Called Cummins service center in Portland, OR and left message. No response. Called and left message next 2 days. No response. Finally on day 4 they returned my call. Said tech has been out sick and they are backed up with repairs. So got an appointment to take generator in on March 28. So my brand new generator sits for 5 weeks waiting for repair.

I received this generator with the battery already hooked and completely dead. After charging it it overnight with the provided charger, the battery will still not charge. Called customer service and told to call manufacturer because that's a defect. Was told to drive 2 hours to get it tested and possibly replaced....really? So if I choose to have it checked and replaced locally I have to pay for the expense! What terrible customer service. So now we have a brand new generator ($1400) with a dead battery and pretty much no warranty unless we drive 2-5 hours away to get it checked. We are not happy with this purchase.
