Answer is so you order more parts and spend more in labor. I maintain 7 chainsaws at work. The most common problems are fuel lines. Fuel lines go bad the fuel eats them slowly. 2nd major problem is carburetor. They have a macroscopic coating that gets eaten away by fuel that I stored in the tanks and starts turning bad. As soon as the layer is gone the carburetor is bad and you need another one. All brands are doing this. We use stihl which on chainsaws cost twice a husquavarna at least in big saws. Huskys and echos for the small saws. Johnsred is husky. One way to fight this is seafoam mixed in with your fuel. Also make sure you keep your bars oiled.
