Window Shades Recalled by Carra Imports Due to Strangulation Hazard (Recall Alert)
Official recall recorded by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The hazard
Cellular, Roller and Soft Horizontal Shades: Strangulation can occur when the shade's continuous loop pull cord or bead chain is not attached to the wall with a tension device and a child's neck becomes entangled in the free-standing loop. Roman Shades: Strangulation can occur when a child places his/her neck between the exposed inner cord and the fabric on the backside of the shade or when a child pulls the cord out and wraps it around his/her neck.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled window shades and contact Carra for a free repair kit. If the recalled cellular, roller and soft horizontal shades do not have hold down devices installed, contact Carra Imports to receive a repair kit which includes a hold down device and instructions to install it. The repair kit for the Roman shades includes instructions to remove the pull cords and to install metal rings to raise and lower the shades to remove the hazard. Carra is directly contacting consumers who purchased the recalled window shades.
