What this means
The fan blades on some Hampton Bay Halwin 52-inch ceiling fans can separate from the motor flywheel during operation. This poses a risk of impact or injury. The company has received 11 reports of blades breaking or separating, though no injuries have been reported yet.
- Stop using the recalled fan immediately.
- Check if you own a Halwin model AK396H-MBK or AK396H-BN (look for the UPC on packaging or the serial number on the mounting plate inside the fan).
- Contact Youngo for a refund or Home Depot gift card, or return the fan to any Home Depot store for a refund or credit.
- You will need proof of purchase or a photo of the serial number to claim a refund.
