Yes when there is a legit defect. People getting injured on onewheels are pushing the board to the max, ignoring the warnings and face planting when the board tops out.

This is the real issue. People don't read the instructions and push the board out of its safety envelope, then they crash, get angry, and complain about it online.

I've read hundreds of crash reports, and never seen more than a handful that weren't a direct result of the user's actions. Actual system failures are vanishingly rare, and most nosedives are only as bad as they are because the rider is traveling at an unsafe speed and has not invested in the training or equipment to fall safely.

Posting a warning is not a license to sell anything. Lots of products, including cars, that used to have safety warnings have been recalled or are no longer sold.

It’s literal feedback from the board. No reading necessary. The board has push back to basically tell you to chill out.
