Why it was recalled
The sound abatement washer may break down resulting in metal on metal wear inside the Pressure Equalisation (PE) valve. This may lead to high temperatures and overheating, separation of the shroud from the device, and loud noise, and can result in a fire that will shut down the device.
Hazard
If the device shuts down this can cause hypoxemia (low oxygen in the blood) from "loss of use". There is an increased risk of fire, which may result in serious injury and property damage.
