I paid dearly for a Makita JR3000V Recip Saw. Now when a part breaks because of a faulty part, the company changes the construction of the Saw and makes modifications to the part that breaks. The problem is now Makita has 6 parts that cost over half of what I paid for the saw. Why should I have to buy their mess up. There should be a recall and they should eat the charges, not charge the customer. They should have made sure the tool was worth the price. I have never been so dissatisfied with a tool. My company will not be buying any more Makita tools and no one else I speak to will either. Makita is junk. If they felt the parts needed to be changed they should have a kit for the customer to call and get to replace it free of charge.
