The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The agency classification is FDA Class II, and the source text explicitly states that the quality control issues present a risk to sterility, which aligns with the rubric criteria for Severe severity involving significant injury risks or Class II classifications with serious potential consequences.
