    THE FOLLOWING FIELDS WERE UPDATED DUE TO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: D10: DEVICE AVAILABLE FOR EVAL YES, D10: RETURNED TO MANUFACTURER ON: 27-DEC-2022 H6: INVESTIGATION SUMMARY THREE SAMPLES OF MATERIAL NUMBER 2203E WAS SUBMITTED FOR QUALITY INVESTIGATION. THE CUSTOMER COMPLAINT OF PACKAGING ISSUE WAS VERIFIED BY VISUAL INSPECTION AND EVALUATION. THE SAMPLES SUBMITTED WERE SUBJECTED TO VISUAL INSPECTION UNDER MAGNIFICATION. THE SAMPLES SUBMITTED SHOWED SIGNS OF DAMAGE TO THE CLEAR PLASTIC PACKAGING. THE DAMAGE SEEN WERE HOLES IN THE PACKAGING THAT VARIED IN SHAPE AND SIZES. FURTHER EXAMINATION OF THE ISSUE IN RELATION TO THE PRODUCT SHOWED THAT THE DAMAGE IN THE PACKAGING WAS ALWAYS ON THE SIDE OF THE PACKAGING WHERE THE LARGE OPENING SIDE OF THE PRODUCT WOULD BE LOCATED. ADDITIONAL EVALUATION WAS CONDUCTED IN ORDER TO DETERMINE IF THE PLASTIC PACKAGING COULD BE PUNCTURED BY THE INTERNAL SPIKE OF THE PRODUCT. ALTHOUGH THE SPIKE IS SHARP ENOUGH TO PUNCTURE THE PLASTIC PACKAGING, IT DID NOT SEEM FEASIBLE THAT THE SPIKE PUNCTURED THE PLASTIC PACKAGING BECAUSE IN ORDER FOR THE PLASTIC PACKAGING TO BE DAMAGED BY THE SPIKE, IT WOULD HAVE TO FORCEFULLY PUSHED INTO THE SPIKE, STRETCHING THE PLASTIC PACKAGING MORE THAN IT WOULD BE STRETCHED IN A NORMAL USE SITUATION. FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO THE TYPES OF HOLES SEEN, SHOWED THAT SOME OF THE HOLES LOOKED TO BE LONGER IN LENGTH AND REPRESENTED MORE LIKE TEARS IN THE PACKAGING RATHER THAN HOLES. WITH THIS IN MIND, A TEST WAS DONE TO SEE IF STACKING THE PRODUCT IN THE PACKAGING AND PRESSING DOWN ON THE STACK, WOULD CAUSE A TEAR IN THE PLASTIC PACKAGING. THE TEST WAS SUCCESSFUL, AND A TEAR WAS CREATED IN THE PACKAGING THAT WAS SIMILAR TO THE TEARS SEEN IN THE SAMPLES EXAMINED. A DEVICE HISTORY RECORD REVIEW FOR MODEL 2203E LOT NUMBER 22085119 WAS PERFORMED. THERE WERE NO QUALITY NOTIFICATIONS ISSUED FOR THE FAILURE MODE REPORTED BY THE CUSTOMER DURING THE PRODUCTION BUILD OF THIS SET. BASED ON THE FINDINGS OF THE INVESTIGATION, THE PROBABLE ROOT CAUSE OF THE ISSUE LIES IN THE PACKAGING OF THE PRODUCT.
