Manufacturer
1 recall in our database name Trek Bicycle Corporation, of Waterloo, Wisc. as the manufacturing or recalling firm.
Of the 1 recalls from Trek Bicycle Corporation, of Waterloo, Wisc. 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.
Trek is recalling approximately 27,000 2012 FX and District bicycles because a seat bolt can break, posing a fall hazard. Consumers should stop riding immediately and contact a dealer for a free replacement.
