Suunto is recalling about 1,300 high-pressure rubber air hoses used with scuba diving gear because they can leak or rupture. These black hoses were sold individually and as components of Suunto Cobra, Cobra 3, Vyper, and Zoop dive computers and analog pressure gauges. While no injuries have been reported, a hose failure underwater leads to a loss of breathing gas, which creates an immediate danger to the diver. Consumers should stop using the affected gear and contact an authorized Suunto dealer for a free replacement.
The hose can suddenly leak or burst during a dive, causing the diver to lose their breathing gas supply rapidly. This failure can lead to a loss of buoyancy control and an emergency ascent, posing a high risk of drowning.
Consumers should stop using these products immediately and bring the hose or pressure gauge and dive computer to the nearest authorized Suunto Dive dealer or Suunto Authorized Service Center for a free replacement hose. Consumers can also use the Suunto Online Service Request www.suunto.com/servicerequest to get their product picked up and delivered for the hose change.
