Unsafe Products | Recent Recalls | October 2009 | North Texas Attorney


Posted on May 04, 2010

Here are some important recalls issued recently you may or may not have heard about:

  • Millions of blinds were recalled earlier this year from stores such as Target, Pottery Barn Kids and IKEA after children were becoming strangled in the cords that move the blinds up and down. These are the "roman style" shades that have exposed cords in which children can get entangled.

  • Toyota recently issued a recall of the floor mats in many of their popular brand Toyota and Lexus vehicles. The mat can get caught up on the accelerator and causeAA a dangerous high speed accident. Until they can find a solution to the problem, Toyota is advising owners of these mats to remove them from the driver's side of the vehicle and not replace them.

  • You probably remember all the news earlier this year about dangerous lead paint in children's toys. Well, Target is now going to pay a $600,000 civil penalty for carrying so many dangerous products. This just shows that stores as well as manufacturers have a responsibility to ensure they are selling safe products.
