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 fire (burn injury/property damage) from a short circuit, which fits the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
