Gas Vent Dampers Recalled by Effikal Due to Carbon Monoxide Hazard
The automatic gas vent damper could fail, and if the blocked vent switch does not activate, the vent could leak carbon monoxide (CO). This poses a risk of CO poisoning to consumers.

Outdoor Playset Gliders Recalled by Backyard Play Systems Due to Fall Hazard; New Assembly Instructions Provided
Some of the gliders were shipped with assembly instructions that did not inform consumers to tighten all lock nuts during assembly, including those attached by the manufacturer. As a result, some lock nuts were not fully fastened during assembly which could cause the glider to detach, posing a fall hazard to children.

The ornamental flowers on the sandals can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children.

Children's Necklaces, CD and MP3 Players Sold at Limited Too and Justice Stores Recalled by Tween Brands Due to Violation of Lead Paint Standard
Surface coatings on these products could contain excessive levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard.


Game Chairs Recalled by Brunswick Bowling & Billiards Corp. Due to Fall Hazard
The retaining washers on the legs can loosen, causing the chair to become unstable. This poses a fall hazard to consumers.


John Jaques & Son Recalls Lawn Dart Games Due to Risk of Puncture
The darts in the games pose a puncture hazard to young children. Lawn darts were banned in December 1988 to protect children from skull, face and eye puncture wounds.


Viessmann U.S. Recalls Boilers Due to Fire Hazard

When used outdoors, the wood in the hammock stand can deteriorate over time and break, posing a risk of falls and lacerations to consumers.


BRP U.S. Inc. Recalls Youth All Terrain Vehicles Due to Collision Hazard
If the rider is ejected and the cord strap is pulled, the shutoff switch can fail to disable the engine. The ATV can operate uncontrolled, until the engine returns to idle, and cause a collision with bystanders, vehicles or other objects. This poses a serious risk of injury.


CPSC Reminds Parents of Drowning Dangers inside the Home
Water anywhere can be a potential drowning hazard. While pools are an obvious risk, parents should not let their guard down around other hazards such as bathtubs and buckets.


Data Shows Unstable TVs, Furniture and Appliances Pose Deadly Danger to Children
