This is the best summary I could come up with:
At the time, the company issued a press release in objection to the CPSC and called the agency’s statements “unjustified and alarmist.”
Now Future Motion is moving forward with a voluntary recall it chose not to do almost a year earlier.
“This update is the culmination of months of work with the CPSC,” reads the company’s recall website.
For early adopters, however, owners can receive a “pro-rated credit of $100 to the purchase of a new board,” according to Mudd.
Alongside Future Motion’s blink on the decision to recall Onewheel, the company shared a new video on YouTube highlighting the new Haptic Buzz feature as well as best practices when riding.
“We’ve been working closely with the CPSC for over a year in order to develop this new safety feature,” Mudd says in the video.
