CPSC, Discount Stores Announce Recall of Fire Extinguishers

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

The hazard

Because of the high-pressure contents of these fire extinguishers, they can explode and expose consumers to flying debris, causing puncture wounds and blast injuries.

What to do

Consumers should discharge these fire extinguishers into a plastic garbage bag or similar container outside, in an open area. Consumers can return the discharged units to the store where purchased, for a refund.
