Recall Details
- Company:
- Unknown Manufacturer
- Reason for Recall:
- The lighters lack child-resistant mechanisms that meet federal safety standards. Young children could operate these lighters, which pose a fire hazard. Federal standards require multi-purpose lighters to have the same level of child-resistance as required in the safety standard for cigarette lighters. The child-resistant mechanism must operate safely, function for the expected life of the lighter, and not be easy to deactivate. The child-resistant mechanism also must automatically reset after each use.
- Classification:
- Class I - Dangerous
Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.
- Status:
