Consumer Products--United States Feds Launch New Product Recall Site, Tracks Announcements From Six Agencies
From a GCN article, The site, www.recalls.gov, provides not only the recalled household items listed by the Consumer Product Safety Commission but also data on recalled motor vehicles, recreational boats, food, medicines, cosmetics and pesticides...The home page features a series of tabs organized by product type. The pages linked to each tab contain links to lists of product recalls and to the home page of the agency responsible for regulating those products. The subpages also feature a link, marked with a red arrow, that tells consumers how to report problems to agencies. The regulatory agencies that are CPSC�s partners on the portal�the Coast Guard, Environmental Protection Agency, Food and Drug Administration, Food Safety Inspection Service and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration�are responsible for updating their own recall lists, Fleming said.
