Action
On 09/11/2019, the firm sent an "Customer Information Medical Device Recall" notification to customers via Certified Mail informing them that certain models of their Automated External Defibrillator (AED) contain a Printed Circuit Assembly (PCA) manufactured by a supplier that did not follow specific procedures when repairing PCAs that initially failed required testing. After being repaired, these PCAs passed all testing at the supplier's facility prior to being assembled into AEDs. The Recalling Firm's quality standards require that the PCAs both be repaired according to specified procedures and pass testing. The Recalling Firm states that the serial number of the AED is printed on the label on the back of the device. The Recalling Firm will replace the affected devices at no charge and while awaiting for the replacement AED, the customer may continue to use the device. The Recalling Firm or distributors will contact customers to arrange for replacement and removal of affected devices. For any additional questions/information, consumers can contact the Recalling Firm at (800)263-3342 option 5 to speak with a AED Recall Team or email heaertstartaedaction@philips.com
