Medical Depot Inc. is recalling approximately 1,542 Nitro Glide Knee Walkers because the steering tiller can separate from the base or front wheel assembly. This recall includes the Blue (Model 791BL) and Red (Model 791RD) versions of the mobility device designed for users recovering from below-the-knee injuries. If the device fails during use, it can cause the user to fall and sustain injuries. These products were distributed nationwide in the United States and in Canada.
The steering tiller can unexpectedly detach from the front wheel base assembly while in use. This mechanical failure removes the user's support and steering control, leading to an immediate risk of falls and related physical injuries.
