Yamaha Corporation of America Power Adaptors Due to Electrical Shock and Electrocution Hazards
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
A crack can occur between the PA-10 AC Power Adapter's upper and lower cases. The upper and lower cases can separate completely and expose electrical wiring, posing electrical shock and electrocution hazards to consumer.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What it looks like
Photos help. Identifiers decide. Appearance can vary by color, finish or packaging. Confirm the model number, date code or other identifier in the official notice.
