mo-Vis BVBA is recalling approximately 64 wheelchair components, including Micro, Multi, and All-round Joysticks, due to a software issue in firmware versions 2.3 and lower. These devices may skip a critical safety check when the wheelchair is powered on, which can cause the wheelchair to move unexpectedly if the joystick is not in its center (neutral) position. Affected models include IDM-MICRO-R, IDM-MULTI-R, and IDM-ARLITE-R, and users are advised to contact the manufacturer to arrange for a necessary correction.
The joysticks may experience timing variations that allow the wheelchair to bypass its safety check during startup. If the joystick is being pushed or is otherwise out of the center position when the chair is turned on, the wheelchair could move without warning, potentially leading to collisions, falls, or other serious injuries.
