From the PD Recall webpage:
"We began making V3 Anchors in August 2017, which featured a thinner cord that could fit directly in smaller camera eyelets. In Spring 2018 we got a few reports (7 total) of V3 Anchors prematurely wearing out and failing. To put things in perspective, we've sold over 1 million V3 Anchors, so the observed failure rate is 7 in 1,000,000 (or 1 in every 17,000 users). Though small, this failure rate is unacceptable for us and hence we're updating our Anchors to prevent this issue from happening to anybody else."

I just took the survey and it looks like I have found at least 10 V1 and 2 V3 Anchors in my kit, although none of them looks as if they would fail and I do check them regularly.:)
Cheers
