Kidde Recalls 226,000 Smoke Alarms Because They Can Fail To Alert

Smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms are an incredible benefit to consumers worldwide. These wonderful devices save countless lives every year and most homeowners rely on them for the protection of themselves and their family.

The Kidde Corporation has announced the nationwide recall of over 225,000 TruSense smoke alarm/Carbon Monoxide detectors. The defective units were sold at Walmart, Home Depot, Menards, Amazon and other stores between May of 2019 and September 2020. The seven different models sell for between $10 and $70. To date no incidents or injuries have been reported. Consumers should contact Kidde for a free replacement alarm and should keep using the recalled alarms until they install replacement alarms.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a poisonous, colorless, odorless and tasteless gas. Although it has no detectable odor, CO is often mixed with other gases that do have an odor. So, you can inhale carbon monoxide right along with gases that you can smell and not even know that CO is present. The recalled units are Kidde Model Series 2040, 2050, 2060 and 2070 Smoke and Combination Smoke/Carbon Monoxide alarms. Only the alarms with the TruSense logo or AMBER=FAULT printed on the front of the alarms are included in the recall. If you have questions you are asked to call Kidde at 844-796-9972.

Never in my life did I think I would recommend an attorney. Somehow God sent this angel of an attorney to assist me in my personal injury lawsuit. I was told by lawyers in Bakersfield that my lawsuit was frivolous because there was money in it.

I live in Elk Grove where we don’t always have a lot of choices. Lawyers are one area where we have few good choices. I wanted to work with a local law firm after my motorcycle accident, and I chose Glenn Guenard and Ross Bozarth.

My daughter was involved in an automobile accident in an intersection on her 17th birthday. The other person said it was her fault and my daughter said her light was green. I am not the sort of person who sues but my insurance
