Event Description

After my left hip replacement, i started to set off theft alarms in the stores.These devices search for radio frequencies, not metal.I contacted the company to complain, and at first, they offered me a new hip to replace the defective equipment.Then they said they wanted to give me a settlement.Then they refused to do either.They know the equipment is defective but won't stand by their product.I tried to see if the product had a recall on it but could not discern if it did.I would like to know if i have defective equipment in me or not.I would also like to keep this from happening to other people.My doctor laughed when i told him about this but it is not funny.I got no help from either the doctor or the manufacturer.Please investigate to see why this product is defective.
