The short answer

Every line below is in CPSC’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

If assembly instructions are not properly followed, the gas spring/shock can be damaged during assembly, if the walking platform is folded up and goes beyond the vertical position. This action can cause the shock to contact the treadmill roller and be damaged, and could propel shock parts out. The parts of the shock could hit a bystander, causing injury.
