Coda Pendant Light Fixtures Recalled Due to Fall and Impact Injury Risk

Tech Lighting is recalling Coda pendant light fixtures because the glass fixtures can detach from their electrical cord and fall unexpectedly, posing a risk of impact injury. About 670 units are affected.

What this means for you

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 (falling glass fixture) where impact injury has not yet been reported, meeting the High severity criterion. Although two detachment incidents occurred, no injuries resulted, so the hazard remains theoretical rather than realized.

Plain-English summary

Tech Lighting is recalling Coda pendant light fixtures in response to a safety hazard involving the fixture design. The recalled fixtures are clear or smoke glass suspended light fixtures available in large (40" high, 7 lbs.) and small (21" high, 4 lbs.) sizes. These fixtures use an integrated LED light source and were sold through independent lighting stores nationwide and online at build.com, Circa Lighting, and Y Lighting from December 2020 through March 2022 for between $570 and $840.

The hazard is that the glass Coda pendant light fixtures can detach from their electrical cord, causing the fixture to fall unexpectedly and posing a risk of injury from impact. The firm has received two reports of the pendant light fixtures detaching. No injuries have been reported.

Consumers should immediately prevent people from going under the recalled light fixtures and contact Tech Lighting to receive a free repair kit.
