Manufacturer Reason for Recall | Due to walkers not meeting product specifications. Walkers were manufactured with misaligned wheels. |
FDA Determined Cause 2 | Process design |
Action | On 09/13/2023, the firm sent an "URGENT: MEDICAL DEVICE RECALL" Letter via FedEx to customer informing them that folding walkers distributed between June 2023 to August 2023 did not meet product specifications for wheel alignment. Products exhibit:
-Misalignment of wheels may result in immobility of walker
-Misalignment of wheels may result in obstruction of glide/roll
Customers are instructed to:
-Immediately examine their inventory and quarantine products subject to this recall
-For devices separated from labeling, visual examination of devices may be required. The misalignment looks like the wheels are not parallel to each other.
-Segregate product with misaligned wheels and return to Breg via Return Material Authorization (RMA or Return Inventory (RI) process.
-Review and fill out the response form and return to Breg.
