Brand(s)
Summary
Immediately stop using the recalled Trollmaster systems and contact CMP Group Ltd. for new installation instructions.
Affected products
This recall involves the Trollmaster PRO 3+ and PRO Angler wireless steering and speed remote kits for outboard motors and Trollmaster TM Pro. Product part numbers included in this recall are TMPRO3PLUS, TMPROANGLER and TMPRO. The product part numbers are located on the retail packaging. Only products with the UPC numbers 836125030000, 628309286729, 628309301644 and 628309286712 are included in this recall.
Issue
The installation and routing of the Trollmaster wires within the trolling/kicker motor may result in electromagnetic interference, which may result in the fluctuation of speed and responsiveness. Even though the products are designed for use on trolling/kicker motors (small supplementary sources of propulsion), this could cause occupants to potentially lose their balance if standing in the boat. The installation instructions could result in consumers inadvertently route wires near high voltage wire harnesses, potentially causing electrical interference. This could cause unexpected throttle control, which could result in a potential loss of balance while operating the trolling/kicker motor, posing an injury hazard.
As of September 13, 2024, the company has received no reports of injury in Canada.
