USDA FSIS: Class I

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work
What this means for you
Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).
The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: The source text explicitly classifies the recall as 'Class I' and 'High - Class I'. According to the rubric, if the agency's own classification is USDA Class I, the score must be at least 4 (Severe).
