What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: The source text does not report illnesses or hospitalizations, but this is classified as FDA Class I by the agency. Per the rubric, FDA Class I recalls must score at least 4, and when Class I is paired with a high-risk pathogen (Salmonella) associated with an outbreak, Severe (4) is appropriate.
