Why it was recalled
The rear legs of the walker have a small cylindrical mounting feature called a boss, which the castors are screwed into. If the welding is not sufficient between the leg and the boss, the boss can come loose and the castors will detach from the rear legs of the chassis.
Hazard
If the weld fails, the boss comes loose and the castors detach from the legs of the walker, this could result in an injury and/or a fall.
