Playworld Systems is recalling about 329 Unity Teeter Tunnels with Lexan Tops because a child who accidentally falls underneath can be crushed by the end of the seesaw plank. The company has received two reports of children suffering serious injuries, including a liver laceration and broken leg bones, when the equipment landed on them. These playground structures were sold nationwide through authorized representatives from October 2014 through March 2025. Playworld is providing a free repair for all affected units.
If a child falls under the Unity Teeter Tunnel while it is in motion, the heavy end of the seesaw plank can land on them, posing a risk of serious crush injuries or internal organ damage. Two children have already sustained major injuries, including a liver laceration and fractures to the tibia and fibula.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled teeter tunnels and contact Playworld Systems to schedule a free repair. Playworld Systems will send a certified playground installer to each location to repair the unit. Playworld Systems is contacting all known purchasers directly and will request that consumers place the teeter tunnels out of service until the repair is completed.
The part number appears on the original purchase order and on the installation instructions.
