Peloton issued voluntary recalls for both of its treadmills on Wednesday over safety concerns. In a press release, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Peloton told customers that had purchased either a Tread or Tread+ to immediately stop using the product and contact Peloton for a full refund or another qualified remedy. Peloton is also stopping sales and distribution of the Tread+ as it works to modify the hardware.
The recall comes weeks after the commission warned consumers about using the Tread+ due to multiple reports of children and pets being injured beneath the machines and one child dying in an incident involving the Tread+. As the CPSC explained, the Tread+ features “an unusual belt design that uses individual rigid rubberized slats or treads that are interlocked and ride on a rail.” The lack of a single, continuous belt and the large gap that exists between the belt of the machine and the floor make the Tread+ uniquely dangerous compared to other treadmills.
