Huish Outdoors is recalling approximately 2,600 Zeagle Sport buoyancy control devices (BCDs) because the buttons on the inflators can break. If this happens, it can cause a rapid loss of air or unintended inflation of the vest during a dive, posing a serious drowning hazard. There have been 23 reports of the inflator buttons breaking, though no injuries have been reported. The recalled models include the Sport Base, Sport Resort, Sport Base Plus, Sport Resort Plus, and Sport Focus, which were sold at dive shops nationwide from August 2015 through July 2018. Consumers should immediately stop using these devices and contact the manufacturer for a free replacement.
The inflator button can fracture or break while underwater, causing the diver to lose buoyancy control through either a sudden loss of air or uncontrolled inflation of the BCD. This can lead to an emergency situation or an uncontrolled ascent/descent, creating a drowning risk for scuba divers.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled BCDs and call Zeagle for instructions on how to receive a free replacement.
