Westinghouse Ceiling Fans Recalled - Shock and Fire Hazards

The Indiana personal injury law firm, Schlyer & Associates, Aggressive Trial Lawyers, is warning of a recall issued by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission of about 7,000 imported by Westinghouse Lighting Corp., of Philadelphia, Pa.

According to the recall notice, the two 60-watt light bulbs included with the ceiling fans exceed the fan’s maximum wattage, which can cause the ceiling fans to overheat or fail. This poses fire and shock hazards to consumers. Ceiling fans with 24, 30 and 42-inch diameter blades are included in this recall. “Westinghouse” is printed on the fan’s ceiling canopy.

The recalled fans were sold at various home improvement and hardware stores, home centers and electrical product suppliers nationwide and online at www.amazon.com from January 2011 through January 2012 for between $135 and $150.

If you have one of the recalled fans, you should immediately stop using the recalled ceiling fans and contact Westinghouse Lighting at (888) 417-6222 for two free replacement 40-watt light bulbs.
