Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (electric shock) where injury has been reported (five consumers), but no deaths or serious injuries are stated, fitting the 'High' criteria for risk-of-harm products with reported injury but not meeting the threshold for 'Severe' (significant injury/property damage reports or structural vehicle defect).
