2 Tonne Vehicle Ramp

Reason the product is recalled

The product does not comply with the requirements of mandatory standard 'Consumer Goods (Portable Ramps for Vehicles) Safety Standard 2017'.

The ramp may deform significantly when overloaded.

The hazards to consumers

As the ramps are used for raising the front of a vehicle off the ground, there is potential for a crushing hazard if the ramp is misused (excessively overloading) while a person is underneath the vehicle. This may result in serious injury or death.

The designated load limit of each ramp is 1000kg. When the ramp is overloaded for more than 1950kg, it may deform significantly.

What consumers should do

Consumers should either cease using the ramp or avoid overloading the ramp.

Consumers can contact Five Oceans via email sales@gosuperspecial.com for a full refund.
