Costco regulars may want to dig up their old receipts.
The wholesale and retail giant has announced a recall of over a dozen items, some of which pose potential danger to its customers.
Included in the recalls are a couple of Anker power banks, Danby and Midea air conditioners, Bridgestone and Michelin tires, and BowFlex dumbbells.
Two Anker power banks, model A1257 and Powercore 10000 Power Bank model A1263, are among the items recalled. The China-based electronics company detected issues with the lithium-ion batteries used in both models, posing a "potential fire safety risk."
The recall comes after several reports of Anker products exploding, causing minor burns and even property damage.
Six models of U-Shape Window AC's from Midea and one model from Danby 8k were also recalled. The recall notice cited the air conditioners' failure to drain quickly enough. The pooled water due to poor drainage could lead mold growth, which poses "risk of respiratory issues and some infections" to consumers.
Specific models of Bridgestone Blizzak 6 Tires and Michelin Agilis CrossClimate C-Metric Tires were recalled for failure to conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 139.
BowFlex 552 adjustable dumbbells were also recalled due to reports that weight plates can fall off the handle while in use.
The aforementioned products comprise half of Costco's full list of recalled items, which includes Segway and Sublue scooters, Topo Chico water bottles and Kirkland cold medicine.
All items can be exchanged for a replacement, or the customer may request a full refund.
