CPSC recalls involving bicycles, e-bikes, helmets, exercise equipment, camping gear, water sports, and off-road recreational vehicles.
Polaris Industries
The right and left front suspension shock towers can separate due to inadequate welding during the manufacturing process. Separation of the welded joints can result in stiffer steering or the shock mount failing suddenly, causing the rider to lose control of the snowmobile and crash.
The harnesses could fail during use, resulting in a hunter falling from the tree stand and suffering serious injuries or death.
The brake caliper sets could break and detach from the bicycle's fork or frame. This could cause the rider to lose control and crash.
Intex Recreation
The ladder's plastic steps can be assembled backward on the support brackets. If this happens, the ladder steps can break and the user can fall.
The bicycle frame can crack while in use, causing the rider to lose control and suffer injuries from a fall or collision.
The radius triple clamps on these motorcycles can crack during operation, posing a risk that the fork of the bike could separate and result in serious injury or death to the rider.
The bushing pivot mount boss on the left and right suspension arm may not have been welded completely and could break off during riding. If this occurs, the rider could lose control of the ATV and crash, posing risk of serious injury or death.
When performing a switch from one gas to another during a dive, the dive computer's display will lock up and not return to the main dive screen that displays dive times. This can cause divers to enter decompression unknowingly or the diver could ascend prematurely, resulting in decompression sickness.
The front wheel forks on these bicycles could have been welded improperly. This poses a risk that the weld could fail, and the rider could lose control and fall.
The front suspension arm ball joints could have been contaminated during production, resulting in rapid wear of one or more of the ball joints and possible ball joint separation. If the ball joint separation occurs while riding, the operator could lose control of the ATV.
On the recalled ATVs, the handlebar base mounting bolts, tie-rod ends and tie-rod adjustment locking nuts may not have been tightened to the proper torque during the production process. Operating an affected ATV could cause components to loosen, resulting in loss of steering control. This condition could result in loss of vehicle control, which could result in injury or death.
Kawasaki Motors
On some of these units, the handlebar holder, tie-rod adjustment, and tie-rod end nuts may not have been tightened to the proper torque. Operation of the vehicle can cause the nuts to loosen, resulting in a loss of steering control. This poses a crash hazard, which can result in injury or death.
