Issue

The recalled product has a defect that may prevent the probe from fully deploying. The tips and connectors may become stuck in the tube, preventing it from extending. This mechanical defect may make it difficult to use when searching for victims. As of February 2, 2026, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
