O que fazer com isso
What to do if you own this product
What is the hazard with Head Ski Boots?
Head Ski Boots was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. The fluorescent yellow materials of the boot shell and sole inserts can deteriorate and break, posing a risk of serious injury from a fall. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should stop using the recalled ski boots immediately and contact Head USA or a Head authorized retailer. For recalled boots with fluorescent boot shell materials, Head will provide free replacement boots in a newer equivalent model upon return of the recalled boots. For recalled boots with yellow sole inserts, Head will provide free replacement sole inserts, which can be installed by the consumer or by a ski shop. Sold at: Various ski retailers nationwide and online from September 2015 through March 2026 for between $500 to $750.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.
How many units are affected?
About About 1,365 (In addition, about 525 were sold in Canada) units of Head Ski Boots are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
