How badly anyone was hurt

  • No one hurt 1 CPSC: Incident, No Injury

As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

  1. No one hurt

    Made Sep 2, 2013, sent to the company Sep 10, 2013, published by CPSC Sep 24, 2013

    The product, in the report: Aqua Lung Pearl BCD

    When I tried in the water to remove the SureLock II rubber handle with weight pocket from my BCD, the handle broke off. I could not remove the weights. Once I managed to get back on the dive boat, four strong men, two pulling on each end, spent a couple of minutes attempting to remove the weight pocket.

    Back on the boat, I discovered the other weight pocket handle was almost completely broken in two, so both were defective.

    I was never contacted by Aqua Lung about the recall that occurred in March.
