What the authority reported
The pivot cams on the affected Transfer v2 Bicycle Hitch Racks can become disengaged, allowing the bike carrier to drop unexpectedly into the lower position. This malfunction could cause a bicycle to fall off the product while a subject vehicle is in motion, as well as injury or property damage to the product, the bicycle, the subject vehicle, and other vehicles on the road, including potentially a vehicle crash. As of June 14, 2024, the company has received no report of incident or injury in Canada.
