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: FDA Class I classification indicates the highest level of regulatory concern. The firmware defect poses a risk of serious injury due to unintended wheelchair movement at power-up. No illnesses or injuries have been reported.

Plain-English summary

The FDA is recalling the Multi Joystick R-net electrical wheelchair component manufactured by mo-Vis BVBA. The affected devices are Model No. P002-62 with serial numbers 1000 to 1690 and UDI-DI 05407008320041.

Devices with firmware versions 2.3 and lower contain a timing defect in the software that may cause the wheelchair to skip its neutral position check during power-up. This can result in unintended wheelchair movement when the joystick is not in the neutral position.

Three units have been distributed in Texas. Users of affected devices should contact mo-Vis BVBA regarding this firmware issue and any necessary corrective actions.
