There was a flaw that caused an enormous recall years ago over quick release levers and disk brakes. Not saying I agree and I’m not saying this is what they’re referring to but I believe this is what is being argued in the case.

- soco 4y agoIf the manufacturer issued the recall and the parents didn't comply, is the manufacturer still to blame?
- c0nsumer 4y agoThat was a specific type of quick release which, when not tightened properly, could open far enough that the lever arm could interfere with the brake rotor. It's about a single type of quick release, not the use of 9mm axle quick releases in general.
- NoPicklez 4y agoAgain, this is what is being alleged and I’m not saying this is the same issue. However the commenter above was saying that there is not a known issue with quick release levers and disk brakes which is untrue. This was the largest bike recall ever.
