The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, along with Stamina Products Inc., announced a voluntary recall of about 11,000 elliptical cross trainers.
A statement by the CPSC said Stamina modified the warning/assembly instructions in the owner's manuals to emphasize that the elliptical pedal shafts must be securely tightened to the cranks. If not securely tightened, the pedal shafts could become loose from the cranks, which could result in serious injury to the user and/or damage to the product.
No injuries have been reported. The product was sold at various retailers and retail web sites from October 2007 to May 2009 for between about $200 and $400.
This recall includes the following elliptical machines:
