What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: The FDA classified this as Class II, which typically warrants a score of 2-3. No reported injuries or hospitalizations are stated in the source text, and the hazard is a mechanical/structural issue rather than a high-risk pathogen or allergen. This meets the criteria for a Moderate (2) severity rating.
