Reason for recall
A software issue may cause the wheelchair's driving mechanism to fall out of calibration. When this occurs, the device may experience unexpected steering drift or imprecise control while driving the wheelchair. The wheelchair may veer from its intended path, which may cause in low-speed collision, tipping, or injuries to user or bystanders.
Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
