Here is a list of new product recalls issued this week: 3/13/09-3/20/09.

I used to post this list weekly on Fridays in the "Coffee Break" area of the board, but the admins felt that would be better to put it in the "News" area on the board so that unregistered or new members could see the lists. Please note this list includes most recalls from CPSC, USDA, FDA, NHTSA (carseats and tires only) and boat recalls from the Coast Guard. I do not include vehicle recalls or FDA recalls related to undeclared allergens. To view all the recalls including those allergen related recalls, you can go to: http://www.recalls.gov/recent.html to see a full listing from each agency.

And then there are all the peanut/peanut butter related recalls (a few more more since last week's post though not as many as previous weeks). I had them all listed in this post: http://www.car-seat.org/showthread.php?t=70123
It would take a long time going through that to grab pieces of each recall, but you can browse through that post to see the latest recalls. If you don't have access to that post, you can also go through the FDA website which has a link: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/peanutbutterrecall/index.cfm
