According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the recalled harness can be worn incorrectly, and the rope or carabiner can be attached to a non-weight-bearing leg loop elastic band, placing the user at risk of falling from height and sustaining serious injury, including paraplegia or death. There has been at least one report of a serious injury sustained from a fall.
The September 12, 2024, recall includes about 22,000 harnesses. The Petzl harnesses are as follows: the GYM harness (Model No. C032AA00), the PANDION harness (Model Nos. C029AA00 and C029AA01), and the PANJI harness (Model No. C028AA00). Operators of climbing gyms, adventure parks, guide companies, and consumers have used the harnesses.
The Petzl harnesses were sold online and in stores at KarstSports, PeakTrading, Backcountry, OmniProGear, Moosejaw, and other outdoor equipment stores from January 2019 through May 2024 for between $59.95 and $69.95.
