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 identifies the hazard as potential Salmonella contamination, which is a high-risk pathogen. According to the rubric, high-risk pathogens without reported illness are typically scored as 3 (High), but the agency classification is Class I. The rubric states that if the agency's own classification is FDA Class I, the score must never go below 4. Therefore, the score is 4 (Severe).
