Default Just got a recall on some important parts I got last year!!

Hi guys don't you just hate recalls! Such a pain in the a$$ to deal with . Well I just got a doosie. I got a letter in the mail they re called my hip implant. How do you like me now! I can't believe it. They re called them from the market because they are putting metal shaving in to the blood stream and are fracturing some peoples thiegh bone. The worst ones with the most trouble are the complete hip replacements Which is t he one I have. lucky me. I can't believe it, I'm stunned. They already have a lawyer on TV offering to take cases for this. As if building a new car and a garage isn't enough.

Nice, how does that work? They cover the hospital bills to "re-do" the surgery? What a PITA. I feel for you brother...

That sucks Wayne. Sorry to hear that. How can a manufacturer be so careless as to overlook something like that?
Best of luck brother. Stay strong!

If you don't mind me asking-what brand of implant do you have?
