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 is classified as FDA Class II, which indicates a situation that could cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences. Per the rubric, Class II recalls without specific reports of hospitalization or death are typically scored as High (3) or Severe (4); given the lack of explicit injury reports in the text, High is the appropriate classification for a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported or specified.
