Frequently Asked Questions
Use the search and filter tools above to look up products by name, brand, or keyword. You can also filter by year or remedy type. If you find a match, the recall notice will include details about what to do next — typically contacting the manufacturer for a free refund, replacement, or repair. The CPSC also maintains a free email alert service at cpsc.gov where you can sign up to receive notifications about new recalls.
Stop using the product immediately, especially if the recall involves a fire, choking, or laceration hazard. Follow the instructions in the recall notice to get your remedy (refund, replacement, or repair). Most recalls include a toll-free number and website where you can register. Keep the product in a safe place — do not throw it away until you have received your remedy, as you may need to return it or provide proof of disposal.
The most common hazards include fire and burn risks, choking hazards (especially in children's products), laceration and cut injuries, electric shock, fall hazards, entrapment, chemical exposure, and lead paint contamination. Fire hazards are consistently the most frequent reason for recalls, often involving lithium-ion batteries, electrical components, or flammable materials.
