What is the danger
The backup brake function does not work for some of the units. Moreover, the primary brake mechanism may fail due to grease degradation in the sealed bearing. The grease reaches the end of its lifecycle before anticipated at the time the device was manufactured. When both the primary and secondary brake engagement mechanisms fail, it can cause the user to fall.
