  • Kids’ Robitussin and Dimetapp On Recall

     

    Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/28VUP2F_Ffc

     

    The FDA and GSK Consumer Healthcare care recalling several lots of Children’s Robitussin Honey Cough and Chest Congestion DM  and one lot of Children’s Dimetapp Cold and Cough.  Seems that the dosing cups included with these products have no 5 and/or 10 milliliter dosing markings rendering the cups useless to parents.  The cups have only 20 milliliter markings, and using this much of the product could be dangerous depending upon the weight of the child.  The lots involved are 02177 and 02178 for the Robitussin and lot CL8292 for the Dimetapp.  If you have these products, don’t use the measuring cups.  Contact GSK at 1-800-762-4675 to obtain the proper dosing cups.

  • Honda Recreational Off-Highway Vehicles Have Been Recalled

     

    Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/hDcF7OUG0rY

     

    The CPSC and Honda America have recalled Honda ROVs.  The vehicle’s transmission’s park position does not prevent the machine from rolling leading to possible crashes and personal injuries.  The vehicles involved are Pioneer and Talon models sold in various colors.  If you’re zooming around in one of these, stop riding them and  call Honda America at 1-866-784-1870 pronto to arrange a repair.

  • Modus Dresser Recall

     

    Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/RzBSffEOP1k

     

    The CPSC and the Modus Furniture Co. are recalling their Brighton 9 drawer dressers, the Bow-front dressers, Travis 9 drawer dressers, Bevelle dressers, and Wooden 9 drawer dressers.  These dressers are big and heavy, 245 pounds, and they are unstable if their mirrors are not installed.  These dressers have been sold at Costco and other stores nationwide.

     

    Again, as I’ve reported with so many recalled dressers, they may tip over, fall on children, and inflict injuries or even kill the poor kids.  The dressers, even with the tip over restraint kits, do not meet applicable federal safety standards.  If you have one of these beasts in your home, sequester it from the children.  Contact Modus at 1-888-859-2129 for a compliant restraint kit and a free in-home installation of the kit.

  • Lochinvar Condensing Residential Boilers Are On Recall

     

    Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/vC_peTfk_Lk

     

    The CPSC and Lochinvar now recall the Lochinvar Condensing Residential Boilers.  The boiler’s flue grommet can malfunction causing the boiler to emit carbon monoxide with resultant poisoning.  If you have one of these boilers bubbling in your basement, get the serial number off the tank and call Lochinvar at 1-833-232-9706 to find out if your heater is affected.  If it is they will help you arrange a repair.  Carbon monoxide is deadly dangerous, so get on this..,,,please.
