CPSC, Andersen Corporation Announce Recall of Window Latches

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The hazard

The latches on the lower sash of the window can unexpectedly open, posing a potential injury hazard to consumers who can be struck by the window or by shattered glass.

What to do

Consumers should immediately ensure that the latches are in the closed position. Consumers should call the Andersen WindowCare® Solution Center to schedule a free in-home repair with an Andersen service technician. Parents should ensure that children do not operate the window until the latches have been replaced.
