Recalls
Searchable archive of product recalls from the FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, NHTSA, and EPA — translated into plain English, severity-scored from objective criteria, and always linked back to the original government notice.
Every recall on this list has been scored 1–5 against an objective rubric from the agency’s own classification, presence of reported injuries or deaths, distribution scope, and hazard type. The colored severity badge on each card is the score — 5 (Critical) means deaths or serious injuries are reported, 4 (Severe) means significant injury or hospitalization risk, and 3 (High) means a known hazard with no confirmed harm yet. Filter to 3+ (High and above) if you want to skip routine Class-III notices.
The agency chips above control which streams are visible. FDA spans food, drugs, and medical devices. USDA FSIS is meat, poultry, and processed egg products. CPSC is household consumer products. NHTSA is vehicles, tires, and child seats. Nationwide on a card means the recall affects every US state — most do — while a state list means distribution was limited.

Minimum severity
Medtronic implantable cardioverter defibrillators may fail to deliver therapy due to a defect in the electrical feedthrough. The devices risk reduced or no energy output during high-voltage treatment.
Medtronic recalls certain ICD and CRT-D defibrillators due to a rare potential for reduced or no-energy output during high-voltage therapy. Affected devices were manufactured with a specific glassed feedthrough component.
Certain Medtronic implantable cardioverter defibrillators may produce reduced or no energy output during therapy due to a feedthrough design issue. This could prevent life-saving electrical therapy from being delivered.
Medtronic is recalling certain implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-Ds) due to a rare potential for reduced or no-energy output during high voltage therapy. The recalled devices contain a specific feedthrough component.
