Reason for recall

The potential for component failures in the Gradient Coil of the affected MR systems may act as a heat source with a potential to produce smoke and/or fire.

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.
