Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Lithonia Lighting has recalled approximately 5,600 LBL4W model LED ceiling light fixtures because the plastic cover (diffuser lens) can detach and fall unexpectedly. This recall affects four-foot-long white metal fixtures with curved plastic lenses manufactured between February 2016 and March 2017. The firm has received six reports of the lenses becoming loose or falling, though no injuries have been reported. Consumers should remove the lens immediately and contact the manufacturer for a free repair kit.

Risk

The heavy plastic diffuser lens can fall from the ceiling without warning, potentially striking people below and causing impact injuries. This is particularly hazardous in high-traffic commercial areas like schools, hallways, and offices where the fixtures are typically installed.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify the affected product by checking the label attached to the fixture's housing for the model number LBL4W and a manufacture date between February 2016 and March 2017 (formatted as MM/DD/YY).
  2. Immediately prevent people from walking or standing directly under the light fixtures until they have been repaired.
  3. Remove the plastic diffuser lens from the fixture to eliminate the immediate falling hazard. You can view a video showing proper removal and repair at www.lithonia.com/LBL4Wvideo.
