Weatherbeeta USA Riding Saddles
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The recalled saddles were manufactured with screws that were too short, causing the girth of the saddle to detach from the tree of the saddle, posing a fall hazard to the rider.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — Fall risk.
