Scepter Fuel Containers
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The recalled fuel containers violate the mandatory safety standards for portable fuel containers because they lack flame mitigation devices required under the Portable Fuel Container Safety Act, posing a deadly risk of flash fire. In addition, the Children's Gasoline Burn Prevention Act requires all closures on portable gasoline fuel containers to be child resistant. The spout on the product is not child-resistant, posing a risk of burn and poisoning to children.
The Recall Registry rates this serious — The agency describes a risk of serious injury or death.
