Genuine Innovations' Inflators Recall

TUSCON, AZ (BRAIN)—Genuine Innovations has issued a voluntary recall on its 
Second Wind MTB and Wrench Force Two Shot inflators.

The combination tire inflator and hand pump can shatter under pressure when 
inflating tires if there is a blockage in the tire valve, posing the risk of 
bruises, lacerations and ringing in the ears.

The CPSC has received 12 reports of combination tire inflator and hand pumps 
exploding. Six injuries were reported including lacerations, temporary ringing 
in ear and bruising.

The Genuine Innovations Second Wind MTB and the Wrench Force Two Shot were 
sold from January 2004 through May 2007 for about $30. The Second Wind MTB was 
sold as part of the Genuine Innovations ATV Deluxe Tire Repair & Inflation Kit 
from July 2005 to January 2007 for about $50. 

Roughly 55,000 units are being recalled.

Poster's Disclaimer/Declaration as to "attempted" OBC list posting, hope it 
get through

The foregoing recall notice should not be construed as an Offer to Sell 
anything, I don't think that it qualifies as "SPAM" (drivel or baloney, maybe) or 
an "advertisement", if anything, an "anti advertisement", I do have an 
Innovation's Product, the "Ultraflate" at the shoppe that I do recomend

The express intent of this posting is solely to warn of a potentially 
defective product than "can" hurt someone (and apparently has), which I do knot want 
to happen to anyone, really!
