LiftMaster myQ garage door control panels, which are sold individually or bundled with wall-mount residential garage door openers, are being recalled. Approximately 96,400 units are affected in the United States, with an additional 19,300 sold in Canada. The secondary entrapment protection system in these panels can fail, which may allow a garage door to close even if an obstruction is present. No injuries have been reported in the U.S.
The control panel's safety system can fail to detect obstructions, causing the garage door to close when it should reverse. This poses a serious entrapment hazard that could lead to injury or death.
Consumers should immediately contact the Chamberlain Group to receive a free repair kit, including shipping.
