Residential Elevators Recalls to Inspect Elevators Due to Impact Hazard (Recall Alert)

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

The hazard

The elevator cab can rise unexpectedly to the top of the elevator shaft and abruptly stop, posing an impact hazard to consumers in the elevator cab.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled elevators and contact Residential Elevators to schedule a free inspection and, where a replacement part is needed, a free repair. Elevators that have been inspected by the company since May 2017 do not require a new inspection. Residential Elevators is able to determine whether a residential elevator is included in the recall by the consumer's street address. The firm is contacting all known purchasers directly.
