Ergotron has recalled about 196,200 interactive television wall mounts because a weld between the mounting plate and ring can fail. This defect can cause the attached monitor or television to suddenly fall from the wall, posing a risk of injury to anyone nearby. The recall includes several models such as the PLAY40, PLAY70, and ITV-HD, which were sold at Walmart, Sam's Club, and Amazon.com between February 2012 and January 2013. Consumers should immediately remove their television from the mount and contact Ergotron for a free repair kit.
The internal weld connecting the mounting plate to the arm can break under the weight of the display. This allows the television to detach and fall, which has already resulted in three reports of property damage.
Consumers should immediately remove the TV/monitor from the mount and contact Ergotron for a free repair kit.
