Pacifiers
Check whether yours is affected, then follow the instructions below.
What’s wrong
The pacifier fails to meet federal safety standards. The nipple can separate from the base easily, the pacifier handle is too long, the mouth guard is too small and there are no ventilation holes on the mouth guard. The pacifier could pose a choking and aspiration hazard to young children.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — Choking hazard from small parts.
