Goal Zero has recalled about 118 Street Charge solar-powered charging stations because a weld connecting the top and bottom sections can fail. If this weld breaks, the top post can fall, posing a serious impact hazard to people nearby. The firm has already received three reports of the top post detaching, though no injuries have been reported yet. These tall, tree-shaped stations were sold to colleges, stadiums, and other public facilities nationwide between October 2014 and February 2017. Goal Zero is providing free inspections and repairs for all affected units.
The weld connecting the top and bottom posts can fail, causing the heavy top post to fall onto consumers using the station or those walking nearby. Three incidents of the post detaching have already been reported.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled charging stations until a free inspection and repair of weld connections is conducted by Goal Zero. The firm is notifying all known customers.
