    The product, in the report: Decking Board Sandbar from Parkay Flooring - https://www.parkayfloors.com/product/decking-board-sandbar/

    Parkay Floors decking material has common defects which can lead to serious injury. Their outdoor decking boards were installed to spec, and then with extra support the second time, on a perfectly well constructed dock and began splitting within 6 months. About 50% of the boards installed split lengthwise and someone was injured from the board entirely giving out under them and resulting in a hole in the dock. The material was then replaced and installed with extra support and within 6 months the same thing is happening, again to about 50% of the boards. Another individual was fortunately not injured but when stepping on the dock the end of the board broke off and he almost fell into the water, or worse still could have been injured on the nearby boat or ladder into the water. This product is very unsafe and the warranty claims specialist for the product is also extremely difficult to deal with, not that I will ever use the same product again it still is within reason that they should refund the money for the defective and dangerous material. It is installed at my private dock which is used lightly a couple times a week for taking the boat out. Multiple decking experts have seen the material and dock and agreed it is very well installed and the problem is purely the product. To reiterate in a concise statement, there have been two occurrences of this with the same material, one injury, and one near injury.
