CPSC, Lifetime Products Inc. and Escalade Sports Announce Recall to Repair Portable Basketball Hoops
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
The basketball hoops may have a sharp protruding bolt on the players' side of the pole, that can cause serious leg or body lacerations to consumers, when the bolt is exposed.
What to do
Consumers should stop using the basketball hoops immediately and contact Lifetime Products or Escalade Sports to receive free cap nuts to cover the bolts. Consumers should call and get a cap nut, regardless of whether their bolt protrudes or not.
