Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Fireworks Over America is recalling about 36,500 Space Monkey multi-effect fireworks because the lit firework can tip over and fire shells at bystanders. The affected product is a 20-tube "cake" bundled in a black wrapper featuring a chimpanzee in a space suit. These were sold at retail firework stores and stands nationwide between November 2014 and August 2015. Consumers should immediately stop using these fireworks and contact the company for a full refund.

Risk

The firework device can become unstable while lit, tipping over and launching flaming shells directly at people nearby. This poses a significant risk of impact injuries, burns, and the potential to start unintended fires.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using and do not ignite any remaining Space Monkey multi-effect fireworks.
  2. Identify the affected product by looking for a black wrapper with a picture of a chimpanzee in a space suit and the words "Space Monkey" and "Shoots Flaming Balls."
  3. Check the back panel in the lower right-hand corner for product code FOA 2936. If you have a full case, look for factory number 36F285-252-14 printed on the front of the case.
  4. Contact Fireworks Over America at 800-345-3957 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or visit www.fireworksoveramerica.com and click on 'Important Safety Recall' to receive a full refund.
