What is the name of your state? Illinois
I have owned an oster blender for only like five months and on Monday I was making a shake like usual and it made a funny sound but I thought "maybe the blender is just getting dull and its shooting ice" so I didnt think to much of it. I poured it out and drank some of it but knew it didnt taste right so I added some sugar and blended again. I heard that sound again and was like geez now I have to buy a new blender so I stopped and poured it back in the glass took a sip and was like "thats a little better I guess". I then went to rinse it out and noticed a blade was missing and was horrified. I didnt see any pieces when i poured it down the sink or feel it when drinking because the other blades totally crushed the broken piece like a chunk of ice. I was in shock and didnt know what to do but knew metal in the body = poison. So I started to throw up for awhile hoping to get any traces out of my system. I then called poison control and they said that it was to late to do much about it since you need to get help immediately and throwing up could have cut my insides. They just said to look out for blood and to eat alot of fiber to catch any metal. Since then I have been very paranoid and feeling ill (mainly to stress I believe). I then emailed the company that very evening and told them of this problem and just today they responded by asking me to send in the blender and everything along with it so they could examine it and send me a new one. Im kind of mad they seemingly are blowing me off and offered me a new blender in 3-4 weeks.
Do I have any case?
