Reason for Recall

MedCare Products has determined that a number of their Floor Lifts manufactured from 9/1/2010 to 11/7/2012 do not meet MedCare's high standards. The original design includes a pin that over time and years of use may stop performing as designed and may break.

Firm Action

Medcare sent a Notification letter dated May 10th, 2013 to affected customers. The letter described the affected product, problem, actions to be taken and provided a replacement assembly. It instructed consignees to replace the old assembly with the new one included in the package. For questions they can contact Todd Perrine in their Technical Support Department at 952-300-2101.
