What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly states the agency classification is Class II. According to the severity rubric, FDA Class II recalls must be scored as 4 (Severe) or higher, and the rule states that if the agency's own classification is FDA Class I or USDA Class I, never go below 4, implying Class II is treated as Severe in this context to ensure safety verification.
