Manufacturer
2 recalls in our database name Permobil Inc as the manufacturing or recalling firm.
Of the 2 recalls from Permobil Inc we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 0 (0%) are Severe.
The manufacturer string comes from the agency’s own source notice — for FDA recalls, the “recalling firm” field; for NHTSA recalls, the vehicle manufacturer; for CPSC recalls, the firm-of-record on the joint press release. A single corporate family can appear under multiple manufacturer strings as agency notices aren’t standardized on a canonical name. If you don’t see recalls you expect, try a parent-company search or a broader full-text search.
Severity scores below are computed from the agency’s classification and the recall text, never from manufacturer behaviour or history. Many manufacturers issue routine corrective actions (software updates, labelling corrections) that are correctly scored low — having recalls on this list isn’t inherently a quality signal.
Permobil Inc. is recalling 715 M5 Corpus Power Wheelchairs (REF 120032) because firmware versions 1.27 through 1.57 lack drive inhibit logic, which may allow driving under restricted conditions and cause instability.
Permobil is recalling M3 Corpus Power Wheelchairs with firmware version 1.26.2 because the firmware lacks a speed restriction when the seat lift exceeds 50 mm, which may cause falls or tip-overs.
