The airbags are used for skiing, snowmobiling and mountain climbing to help keep the user above the surface if an avalanche occurs. Model year 2008 to 2010 airbag cartridges are included in this recall. The packs are between 15 and 45 liters and have the \"Snowpulse\" logo printed on them. The metal cartridge is inside the pack and unscrews from the airbag.

If this gauge does not have an \"A\" or a \"B\" on the dial then it is included in the recall.","URL":"https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2012/Avalanche-Airbags-Recalled-by-Snowpulse-Due-to-Risk-of-Injury1","Title":"Avalanche Airbags Recalled by Snowpulse Due to Risk of Injury1","ConsumerContact":"For additional information, contact Snowpulse at (800) 451-5127 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's website at www.snowpulse.com","LastPublishDate":"2016-04-12T00:00:00","Products":[{"Name":"Snowpulse Avalanche Airbags","Description":"","Model":"","Type":"Mountain Climbing","CategoryID":"68308","NumberOfUnits":"About 1,200 in the United States and 2,600 in Canada"}],"Inconjunctions":[{"URL":"http://healthycanadians.gc.ca/recall-alert-rappel-avis/hc-sc/2012/14949r-eng.php"}],"Images":[{"URL":"https://www.cpsc.gov/s3fs-public/Recall.2012.12268.12268a.jpg","Caption":""},{"URL":"https://www.cpsc.gov/s3fs-public/Recall.2012.12268.12268b.jpg","Caption":""},{"URL":"https://www.cpsc.gov/s3fs-public/Recall.2012.12268.12268c.jpg","Caption":""}],"Injuries":[{"Name":"None reported."}],"Manufacturers":[{"Name":"Snowpulse SA, of Martigny, Switzerland","CompanyID":""}],"Retailers":[{"Name":"Specialty outdoor and motorsports stores nationwide from September 2008 through April 2012 for between $900 and $1,200.","CompanyID":""}],"Importers":[{"Name":"Mammut Sports Group Inc., of Shelburne, Vt.","CompanyID":""}],"Distributors":[{"Name":"Mountain Sports Distribution, of Golden, British Columbia, Canada","CompanyID":""}],"SoldAtLabel":null,"ManufacturerCountries":[{"Country":"Switzerland"}],"ProductUPCs":[],"Hazards":[{"Name":"A leak in the airbag's cartridge can result in the airbag not deploying, posing a risk of death and injury in the event of an avalanche.","HazardType":"","HazardTypeID":""}],"Remedies":[{"Name":"Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled airbags and contact Snowpulse for a replacement cartridge."}],"RemedyOptions":[{"Option":"Replace"}]}]
