A very large recall of about 225,000 defective <"https://www.yourlawyer.com/practice_areas/product_liability">General Electric® Food Processors has been announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

The defective General Electric® Food Processors were manufactured in China and imported by Walmart Stores Inc., of Bentonville, Arkansas.

The safety interlock system on the recalled General Electric® Food Processors can fail, allowing operation without the lid secured, which poses a laceration hazard. The product can also emit smoke, or catch fire, posing a fire hazard.

To date, Walmart has received a total of 58 incident reports, which includes 24 reports of the food processor operating without the lid in place. Of these, 21 resulted in injuries to fingertips. There have also been 34 reports of the unit smoking, including 3 reports of fires.

This recall involves GE-branded digital, 14-cup food processors. The General Electric® Food Processors are black with stainless steel trim; model number 169203 is imprinted on the underside of the unit.

The recalled General Electric® Food Processors were sold exclusively at Walmart stores nationwide and Walmart.com from September 2009 through February 2011 for a retail price of about $50.

The CPSC advises consumers to immediately stop using the recalled General Electric® Food Processors and to return the defective product to any Walmart for a full refund.

Walmart Customer Service can be reached, toll free, at 1.877.207.0923 between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., Central Time (CT), Monday through Friday, or at the firm’s website at www.walmartstores.com/recalls.

I'm a 9/11 first responder, and I can honestly say that Parker Waichman made me feel like they had my best interest in my VCF case. Ms Candalino & Ms Viti are top notch in my book. I was constantly informed on the status of my case. I would definitely recommend Parker Waichman LLP to family and friends.

Parker Waichman LLP helped me with my case. It all started with a visit from Jorge Peniche who was extremely professional, courteous and detailed with my case. All of my questions and concerns were addressed. I was provided with evidence, my emails, phone calls and inquiries were addressed in a timely fashion with great guidance and care. I am very grateful and appreciative as I had never been through this experience. They were great, a special thanks to Jorge Peniche, who was amazing, the lawyer in my case, Denny Tang and the nurse at the firm. Greatly appreciated. Kindly, Kathy
