Reckitt is recalling about 67,000 AirWick Fresh New Day aerosol air fresheners in Fresh Linen and Fresh Waters scents. A missing corrosion inhibitor in a single batch of these 8-ounce cans can cause the metal containers to rust, leak, or rupture, spraying the contents and pieces of the can. Five incidents of cans leaking or rupturing have been reported, though no injuries have occurred. Consumers should stop using the product immediately and contact Reckitt for a voucher for a free replacement.
If the metal can corrodes, it can suddenly burst or leak, posing a risk of lacerations and injuries from flying debris or chemical irritation to the skin and eyes.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled air fresheners, wrap the product in several layers of paper, and dispose in accordance with state and local requirements. Use caution to avoid skin and eye contact if the can appears to be leaking. Reckitt is offering consumers a voucher for a free replacement Fresh New Day aerosol air freshener. Consumers should contact Reckitt to submit a photo of the recalled can, along with their contact information and written confirmation that they will dispose of the can to receive a voucher for a free replacement.
