Monte Carlo Recalls Ceiling Fans Due to Injury Hazard

Agency Publication Date: December 19, 2017

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Monte Carlo is recalling about 3,400 'Cyclone' model ceiling fans because the brackets connecting the blades to the fan can break, causing the blades to fall and potentially strike consumers. The firm has received 10 reports of brackets breaking and fan blades falling, including one report of property damage. These five-blade fans are 60 inches wide and were sold in Roman Bronze and White finishes at lighting stores nationwide, including Del Mar Fans & Lighting and Wilson Lighting, from January 2016 through September 2017.

Risk

The blade brackets can fracture during use, causing the heavy fan blades to detach and fall unexpectedly, which poses a risk of impact injuries or property damage. Ten incidents of blades falling have already been reported.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the recalled ceiling fans by turning them off and leaving them off.
  2. Check the top of the motor housing to identify your fan's model and Manufacturer Purchase Order (MPO) number. For the Roman Bronze finish, the model is 5CY60RB and affected MPOs are 30082259, 30100285, 30103624, 30115763, 30126474, 30128431, 30139761, and 30143432.
  3. For the White finish, the model is 5CY60WH and affected MPOs are 2020018, 30082259, 30139815, and 30139829.
