Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
GF Health Products, Inc. and OKIN America have initiated a voluntary field correction for OKIN America "DUOMAT 3" Head/Foot motors used in Lumex Patriot Full Electric Homecare Beds (Models US0458/US0468) and Patriot LX Full Electric Homecare Beds (Model US6000). The motors contain contaminated material in the plastic housing that may crack, causing the motor to stop moving the head section as designed. While no injuries have been reported, if the head section falls, an injury is unlikely but possible.
Approximately 3,547 units are affected, including 3,063 beds and 484 replacement motors, distributed nationwide in the USA and internationally to Puerto Rico, Bahamas, Canada, Chile, El Salvador, and Santo Domingo. The affected beds have specific serial number ranges, and replacement motor kits were shipped between May 4, 2015 and June 30, 2016. The record does not specify what remedy an affected consumer should pursue.
