What happened

Alltrade Tools is recalling Snap-on ratcheting tie downs sold exclusively at Sam's Club because the ratchet handle can fail during use, which may release a secured load and cause injury. The recalled product is a four-pack of 15-foot-long yellow straps with red "Snap-On" printing, used to secure heavy items to trailers, trucks, and hand trolleys. The ratchet mechanism is black, and affected units have product number 871343S on the upper right corner of the packaging. Recalled tie downs are identifiable by at least one silver metal tab that is flush with the openings in the black metal ratchet handle.

According to the recall notice, consumers should immediately stop using the recalled tie downs and return them to Sam's Club for a full refund.
