No incidents or injuries have been reported.
This recall involves 2017-2018 model year LOOK Pivot brand ski bindings. The heel piece can loosen and allow the boot to detach from the ski.
The LOOK Pivot ski bindings were sold in black, white and yellow, with LOOK written on the front of the binding and Pivot written on the side of the heel piece.
