Todd Rokita reminds Hoosiers to check certain products purchased for safety concerns

INDIANA- Attorney General Todd Rokita is alerting Hoosiers of important consumer protection concerns for products recalled as we celebrate the new year.

“January should be full of hope and positivity – not anxiety or concern about your purchased products,” Attorney General Rokita said. “Do not allow a flawed product to put your family in danger. Please stop using recalled items immediately and pursue resolution from the manufacturer.”

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the following consumer products were recalled in January: 

Bokser Home Recalls Mattress Pads Due to Fire Hazard and Violation of Federal Mattress Pad Flammability Regulation

Boot Royalty Recalls Men’s Leather Work Boots Due to Crush Hazard

H.H. Brown Shoe Company Recalls Redeemer Work Boots Due to Injury Hazard

UBBCARE Play Yard Mattresses Recalled Due to Suffocation Hazard for Infants; Violation of the Federal Safety Regulation for Crib Mattresses; Sold Exclusively on Amazon.com by UBBCARE

There are many more items that need to be double checked before using regularly.

If you believe you recently purchased a recalled product, stop using it, and check its recall notice. Then, follow the notice’s instructions, including where to return the product or what steps must be taken to receive a replacement product.
