The product, in the report: Multi-positional ladder
I was up on a ladder last December 2017 and hanging lights on the eavestrough when the Jaws ladder I was on snapped apart and I landed my back on top of it. I was on the 2nd and 3rd rungs of the ladder. My back was in pain and I had other sore areas that hit the ladder. I had secured the ladder as I was supposed to and tightened the locking mechanism properly in an A frame shape. I had owned this ladder for about 10 years and kept it in my garage. When I contacted the manufacturer about the incident they sent me a claim form and I filled it out and sent it back with pictures. The parent company of the JAWS ladder was now Louisville Ladders and they said they weren’t responsible for any defects to the products as signed in a clause when they bought Featherlite. They further wanted me to sign a disclaimer and destroy the ladder for $500, because their engineers said there was no problem with the ladder. The response I received sounded wrong and Louisville Ladders sounded like they wanted to hide this incident. I signed nothing and posted the incident on their [Redacted] page. They tried to contact me again then stopped. I am concerned of the serious harm that may come to other users of this product. I kept this product and have pictures.
