Around 6,600 zipline kits made by Jugader and sold exclusively through Amazon are being recalled because of a malfunction with the product’s stainless steel cable. So far, the manufacturer has received 20 reports of the cable breaking while the zipline was in use and causing 9 incidents of injury, including a broken clavicle.
The zipline kits were sold on Amazon.com for approximately $140 from March 2020 through June 2023. Consumers who purchased the product would have received a 160 foot-long cable wire, along with a blue trolley and hanging seat made of plastic. If you have one of these ziplining kits in your possession, please stop using it immediately. For instructions on how to contact the manufacturer and receive a free repair kit, click here.

How to File an Accident Claim for a Defective Product
It’s essential to take the right steps if you have been injured by a defective product. We recommend that you do the following as someone that fell to the ground due to the cable breaking on a recalled zipline kit:
- If you can, take photos or video of your injuries to ensure that they are properly documented in the moments right after the accident.
- Make sure to take photos of the damaged product, i.e., the cause of your accident and keep the zipline kit in a safe place. This will ensure that it can be used as evidence in a lawsuit against the manufacturer.
- Your health is your primary concern, so go to a hospital right away.
- Once you have received medical treatment, contact the manufacturer to file an accident report.
- Do not agree to return the product, receive a free repair kit, or a refund of the purchase price. Accepting any of these remedies can compromise your right to sue the manufacturer.
- Contact a product defect accident lawyer, who can help you obtain compensation for your monetary losses.
