It might have been me, I know I've posted something regarding fakes and also gear that isn't up to the job, as two seperate notices.
 
Though they have had the decency to issue the recall notice, I think what is probably more concerning, that a company with such a reputation, is able to market substandard gear.
 
This is not the first recall notice Petzl have issued, as the article states, its the third!   :o   :o
