Hazard: Between March 2, 2021 and December 31, 2021, the product label used in production did not contain the "Rx Only" statement as required.

Hazard: The battery wiring harness on affected wheelchairs may become disconnected during shipment from the factory or during wheelchair use traversing large obstacles or after a jolt or impact to the wheelchair. The disconnection of the battery harness results in loss of power to the wheelchair.

Hazard: Power Wheelchairs with a LiNX Gyro component running firmware version 6.1.2 can experience a more aggressive deceleration rate than the programmed rate due to the system following the incorrect deceleration profile, resulting in potential injury

Hazard: Breakdown of the sound abatement washer, and metal on metal wear inside the Pressure Equalization (P.E.) valve assembly in the concentrator may lead to failure that can result in self-extinguishing fires or cap explosions.

Hazard: Invacare has identified via customer complaints, the potential for the mounting bolt connecting the caster to the base frame of the patient lifts to become loose. Loose hardware can cause wear to the hardware and housings. If left unresolved, the caster may separate from the base of the lift causing the Lift to tilt and a patient fall. Failure does not occur right away but happens over time if the lift is not properly maintained. Patient falls are inherently dangerous and may result in a range of injuries that are dependent on physical condition of the patient and the nature of the fall. When injuries occur, they are typically non-serious injuries such as bruising, lacerations, or abrasions. In rare cases, more serious injuries such as bone fracture, head trauma, or death can occur. For caregivers using the lift, attempts to manually stabilize a lift if it becomes unstable could result in sprains, serious back injuries, or bone fractures.

Hazard: A typographical error was noted within the user manual for the 6632 Assist Bed Rail which could result in the Assist Bed Rails being installed incorrectly.
