Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

the firm discovered that, starting on April 1, 2020, a 3/8 dowel pin was used in place of the 5/8 pin. Over time, the shorter pin may not engage in either the upper or lower body, causing the cord to come loose or slip which could result in the loss of suspension.
