Liberty Mountain has recalled some of its Mountain Climbing Lanyards due to a problem with the elastic webbing on the lanyards, which can deteriorate over time and break while in use, posing a risk of serious injury or death to the climber.

This recall involves Easy Go XP Lock Via Ferrata Lanyards used for shock absorption on Via Ferrata mountain climbing routes. The lanyard has two elasticized webbing branches with self-locking carabiners at each end. Recalled units can be identified by the elasticized webbing. "EASY GO XP LOCK" is printed on a white tag sewn into the zipper pouch.
