Every single Onewheel is being recalled after four deaths::Future Motion, along with the CPSC, is recalling 300,000 Onewheel self-balancing skateboards. Four crash deaths were reported, and the company resisted recall last year.

Read the article. These deaths were caused by safety features that should have been installed but weren't. Like if an auto manufacturer didn't put a rev limiter or airbags in their cars.
