According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the harnesses could fail during use, resulting in consumers falling from treestands and suffering serious injury or death. The June 8, 2006, recall involved about 106,000 safety harnesses sold with the following treestands: Viper X5, Goliath X5, Razor X5, Summit 180°, Bushmaster X5, Broadhead Backpacker, Bullet Backpacker, Clearshot, Openshot, and MegaSampson.
Only harnesses with “Manufactured in 2005” and “Made in China” printed on a label on the harness tether are included in this recall. It is common for some consumer products to be given to family members or passed along to others. It is for this reason that Johnson//Becker, PLLC, thinks it is important for consumers to check their equipment before heading out on their next hunting trip.
