On January 15, 2008, the global news network CNN reported on the release of the FDA’s warning letter to Stryker Corporation regarding Stryker’s failures to adequately respond to the FDA’s concerns regarding problems with its hip implants.

The warning letter stemmed from an FDA’s inspection of Stryker Corporation’s Mahwah, New Jersey plant, which manufactures hip implants and implant components.
