Yikes! Thirty-seven million could wind up bankrupting Kidde, no kidding!

I just checked mine and am not affected. My 2 are "First Alert".

Thanks for the heads-up, even so. :semi-twins:

Geeeeez! That's a lot of fire extinguishers. Just checked mine, the model number does not match those listed. I hope mine is ok, but maybe next time I'll buy from a different manufacturer.

When we checked our two, my lovely wife found they were both subject to the recall. She called Kidde, and they are sending us 2 replacements. No charge. I mean they aren't asking for money, not that the extinguishers aren't ready for use. :biggrin-new:

Stay safe, all, and stay cool!
Little fire joke there...stay cool...fire is hot...I give up. More coffee.

Well, I just covered my fanny! Mine had no date code but had 1993 on the label. New one coming in about 2 weeks.:redfire:
