IN THE EVENT OF A VEHICLE CRASH, THE CHILD MAY NOT BE ADEQUATELY PROTECTED AND IS AT AN INCREASED RISK FOR INJURY.

The jackets contain drawstrings which pose strangulation and entrapment hazards to young children.

The power cord between the power nozzle and the wand connector can short-circuit posing fire and shock hazards to consumers. This condition can occur even if the vacuum has been turned off but left plugged in.

An electrical short circuit in the night light can cause it to overheat and smolder or melt, which can burn consumers or result in fire.

The recalled fire alarm control panels can fail to send a signal to alert monitoring centers in the event of a fire.

The space heater can overheat due to loose electrical connections, posing a fire hazard to consumers.

The front ski can crack or break, causing the snow bike to stop suddenly and posing a fall hazard to consumers.

The swing seats on the playsets can crack and break in half, causing the user to fall to the ground.

The crib's plastic drop-side hardware can break, causing the drop side of the crib to detach from a corner of the crib. When the drop side detaches, it creates a space into which a child can roll and become wedged or entrapped. When a child is entrapped between the drop side and the crib mattress, there is a risk of suffocation or strangulation. In addition, the mattress support can detach from the crib frame, creating a space in which a child can become entrapped and suffocate or strangle.

The drop-side rail hardware on the cribs can break or fail, allowing the drop side to detach from the crib. When the drop side detaches, a hazardous gap is created between the drop-side rail and the crib mattress in which infants and toddlers can become wedged or entrapped, posing risks of suffocation and strangulation. In addition, children can fall out of the crib when the drop-side rail falls unexpectedly or detaches from the crib. Drop-side rail failures can also occur due to incorrect assembly or with age-related wear and tear.
