Product Recall Clearinghouse            

To help consumers remain up to date on all product recalls, the Consumer Protection Division has established an online clearinghouse. By bringing together in one site all the agencies that issue recall notices, consumers no longer have to determine what each agency regulates and how to access recall notices. Recent consumer-related recall notices may be viewed easily by selecting from the appropriate agency below. Archived recalls and more information about a specific recall is also available on the appropriate fedeal agency's web site.
