Recalls

All US Product 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.

How to read this listing

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 the agency’s own highest classification or reported deaths or serious injuries, 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.

Click any recall to see the full summary, affected lot codes and model numbers, the agency’s own classification, and a direct link back to the original government notice for verification.
