Additional Manufacturer Narrative

Visual inspection and functional testing could not be performed because the device in question has not been returned for evaluation.Thus, the complaint could not be verified and a root cause could not be determined with confidence.It is difficult to perform an accurate evaluation of a failure without having the failed product.As such the complaint is being closed without conclusion.
