Every line below is in CPSC’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
Plastic parts in the pump connected to the camping stove can crack or become dislodged. When exposed to extreme temperature change, the blue plastic shrinks around the aluminum parts and has been observed to crack the outer plastic housing. The air tube on some of the pumps can become unglued and dislodged. Both of these failures can permit gas to leak.

To return the pump to Snow Peak USA, please call customer service for Snow Peak’s UPS account number and a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number to add to the outside of the box for quicker turn-around time.
