Philadelphia Product Liability Lawyer Warns Snow Skiers to Beware of Defective Atomic Bindings
The Philadelphia product liability lawyers at Reiff and Bily advise you that a voluntary and precautionary recall program has been launched by the United States Consumer Products Safety Commission in cooperation with Atomic Skis GMBH of Austria for Atomic ski bindings that were produced between the years 1998 and 2002. Atomic has noted on its own website that the heel housing component of these bindings could crack, possibly causing the binding to release early posing a falling risk to the skier. Therefore, these bindings must no longer be used.
The models affected include Atomic Race, Xentrix, Device, Centro, and Dynamic. These models were sold by Atomic dealers from 1998 through 2005 for between $150 and $350. It is important to note that skiers are advised by OHS and Atomic to stop using these bindings immediately and return them to an authorized Atomic dealer. The dealer will inspect your bindings for free and will replace the heel component if necessary.
