Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 3/5 (High).
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: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, and the defect involves a risk-of-harm product (medical device) where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the 'High' severity criteria.
Plain-English summary

The recall involves 45,302 units worldwide, with 8,188 units distributed in the United States. The affected products were distributed globally, including in the U.S., Australia, Canada, and numerous European and Asian countries.

This defect can lead to an increased occurrence of coil stretching.
