Fire & Electrical Hazard Recalls

15 recalls involving fire or electrical hazards — updated every few hours.

Fire and Electrical Hazards in Consumer Products

Fire and electrical hazards are among the most urgent recall categories because the risk can materialize rapidly and without warning. The CPSC estimates that roughly 50,000 home fires annually involve electrical failures in consumer products, including appliances, power strips, chargers, and lighting. Products recalled for fire hazards are almost always classified as urgent because a fire can cause property damage, injury, or death within minutes of ignition.

Lithium-ion battery failures are the most common fire hazard in modern product recalls. These batteries — found in e-bikes, scooters, power banks, laptops, earbuds, and hundreds of other devices — can undergo thermal runaway, a chain reaction in which the battery generates more heat than it can dissipate. Thermal runaway can cause the battery to smoke, catch fire, or explode. It can occur during charging, during use, or while the device is idle. The primary triggers are manufacturing defects, physical damage, overcharging, exposure to heat, and counterfeit or substandard cells.

Electrical shock hazards arise from faulty wiring, inadequate insulation, improper grounding, or design defects that allow live conductors to be accessible. Products recalled for shock risk include power strips, extension cords, small appliances, outdoor power equipment, and lighting products.

If you have a recalled fire or battery hazard product: Disconnect it from power immediately. Do not charge it. Keep it away from flammable materials in a cool, ventilated space until you can return or dispose of it. Do not leave any battery-powered product recalled for overheating plugged in and unattended.

15 of the current recalls are classified as urgent.
