Recall events

Agencies publish one firm’s recall action as many separate product records — a different lot number, pack size or model number each gets its own filing, even though they were all pulled for the same reason on the same day. An event groups those records back into the single action that produced them: one firm, one recall, one date, many products.

Listed below are the events with 5+ constituent recalls — the largest, most consequential actions on the site. A two- or three-product event exists too, reachable from any of its recall pages, but is not substantial enough to list here.
