Approximately 8,000 Design Classics ceiling-mounted light fixtures (models 562-09 and 562-30) are being recalled because the internal wiring can degrade and become exposed. This defect allows electricity to pass into the metal parts of the fixture, creating a dangerous risk of fire and electric shock. The fixtures are 14-inch round, flush-mount lights in satin nickel or bronze with domed alabaster glass shades, sold between September 2008 and September 2009 for about $32. Consumers should stop using the lights and contact the company for a free repair or a replacement fixture and a $50 voucher.
The insulation on the light's socket wires can break down over time, exposing live electrical wires. These wires can then energize the metal canopy of the fixture, potentially causing a house fire or shocking anyone who touches the light.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled light fixtures and return them to the place of purchase to obtain a free replacement fixture and a $50 voucher, or contact the firm to schedule a free home repair.
