Product recalls from the Consumer Product Safety Commission |
![]() |
|
| The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission
is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of serious
injury or death from more than 15,000 types of consumer products under
the agency's jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries and property damage from consumer
product incidents cost the nation more than $700 billion annually. The
CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that
pose a fire, electrical, chemical, or mechanical hazard or can injure
children. The CPSC's work to ensure the safety of consumer products -
such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters and household chemicals
- contributed significantly to the 30 percent decline in the rate of deaths
and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 30 years. To report a dangerous product or a product-related injury, call CPSC's hotline at (800) 638-2772 or CPSC's teletypewriter at (800) 638-8270, or visit CPSC's web site at www.cpsc.gov/talk.html.
