The product, in the report: Playset (swing set with monkey bars and slide and “fort”) Adventure Products model Tacoma 1APO51

One of my grandsons, 7 years old, was playing on the Tacoma swing set model 1AP051-07 in our yard, while traversing the overhead ladder one of the rungs broke, causing him to fall and the broken sharp piece fell on him causing a minor laceration to his right cheek. The overhead ladder part consists of several wooden rungs about 1” diameter set horizontally, and perpendicular to the plastic-covered horizontal 2X4 pieces. I am further concerned because the ladder to the “fort” part of the set consists of similar 1” diameter wooden rungs, and if one breaks while one of our 11 grandchildren is climbing it, injuries are likely. I examined the broken run and it clearly has rotted in the inside of it.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(8/11/2011) Backyard Discovery aka Adventure Playsets: The recall on the monkey bar section of the swingset was issued in November of 2009. This recall provides parts to replace the entire section of the swingset that broke as the customer describes (including the rungs that specifically broke on this customer’s set). The recall was publicized in the media, on our website, in letters to customers who had registered their products with us, and via posters placed at the retail stores where the sets were sold. During our interaction with customers for this recall, we reminded customers that their sets had a warranty for wood rot and decay that lasted 12 years and that if they observed any other wood parts not performing, those parts could be replaced under the warranty.
On June 29 of this year we initiated a recall on the same sets for the fort corner posts. These posts were made of the same wood and plastic coated, and they may suffer from the same rotting as the monkey bar beams. In most cases, these sets have wood rungs that span between the fort corner posts. Along with new fort corner posts and hardware, our recall kits replace these rungs with powder-coated metal which will be durable. This should address the customer’s concern.
The customer mentions that he attempted to contact us. Both recall kits can be ordered easily from our website (www.recall.adventureplaysets.com).
