> September 26, 2003- Segway LLC Announce Voluntary Recall to Upgrade Software on Segway™ Human Transporters
In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), Segway LLC of Manchester, New Hampshire is voluntarily recalling approximately 6,000 Segway HT Human Transporters. Under certain operating conditions, particularly when the batteries are near the end of charge, some Segway HTs may not deliver enough power, allowing the rider to fall. This can happen if the rider speeds up abruptly, encounters an obstacle, or continues to ride after receiving a low-battery alert.
