Recalls
In
the U.S. alone, dangerously overheating computer batteries, tainted
supermarket produce, peanut
butter snack foods, life-threatening car defects, toys
and pet foods are only the latest in a list of product recalls
that have recently been in the news.
Watchdog government
agencies are usually the ones responsible for alerting the public
to the latest consumer safety hazards, although most companies
(if they want to stay in business) will voluntarily issue a recall
if they think their product will do harm to consumers, whether
it be dangerously defective merchandise, or foods that are unsafe
to eat.

date on the most recent safety warnings, recalls and other vital
information of interest to consumers - issued in the U.S., Canada
and around the world - at top sites offering facts & information
on what products are currently under recall, where they are occurring,
