What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).
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 source explicitly identifies a 'major structural failure' and an increased risk of a crash, which aligns with the rubric criterion for structural vehicle defects.
