Reason for Recall
A mechanical lock used to connect and release a locking liner into a prosthetic socket have an attachment pin and lock that can wear down faster than expected, leading to the potential for the pin to disengage from the lock, leading to loss of suspension of the external prosthetic system that replaces a missing lower limb, which can lead to falling and injury.
