mo-Vis BVBA Idm-Arlite-R. Electrical wheelchair component recall: Devices with firmware versions 2.3 and lower may experience timing variations

Recall published 1+ years ago

Devices with firmware versions 2.3 and lower may experience timing variations between software tasks, which could result in skipping the necessary neutral check and the wheelchair producing unintended movement upon power-up when the joystick is out of neutral.

The hazard: Device safety concern

This is a device enforcement record. Check whether the remedy is a correction, a software update or a removal before changing anything.

What the notice says: Devices with firmware versions 2.3 and lower may experience timing variations between software tasks, which could result in skipping the necessary neutral check and the wheelchair producing unintended movement upon power-up when the joystick is out of neutral.

Why it matters: The FDA recorded an enforcement action against this device. Most device recalls are corrections rather than removals, so the device often stays in use while the manufacturer issues a fix.
