American Innovations Corp. Recalls Ladder Extensions that Can Detach and Hit Consumers

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

If the knob securing the extension unit to the ladder is not tight, it can detach and fall when the ladder is being removed or lowered. The unit could hit a bystander, causing serious head injuries.

What to do

Owners are being sent a free repair kit, including a safety strap and easy-to-follow assembly instructions. Until the repair is made, consumers should check to make sure the knob securing the extension unit is tight during use.
