Lithonia Lighting is recalling approximately 6,500 JHBL LED light fixtures because the metal mounting hub can break, causing the 40-pound fixture to fall unexpectedly from the ceiling. There have been eight reports of hubs breaking, including four instances where the light fixture fell. These white die-cast fixtures were sold at electrical distributors nationwide between August 2014 and June 2015 for about $520 each. Consumers should check their fixtures for manufacture dates between August 2014 and June 20, 2015 and contact the company for a free safety chain kit.
The metal hub used to mount the light to the ceiling can fail, causing the heavy fixture to fall and potentially strike individuals below, posing a serious risk of impact injuries.
Consumers should immediately contact Lithonia Lighting to receive a free chain to secure the fixture to the ceiling. Lithonia Lighting is contacting all known customers.
