What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: This is a choking hazard—a risk-of-harm product category under the rubric. The source explicitly states no injuries have been reported, and the hazard is based on one incident of the component detaching. Per the rubric, risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported score at most 3, placing this in the High category.
