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 text explicitly states that the defect increases the risk of injury or death, which aligns with the rubric criterion for 'significant injury/property-damage reports' or structural defects leading to severe harm.
