Cornwall ON - It’s been a busy recall week.   First Chrysler and GM on the vehicle front and now over 1.5 million Whirlpool dishwashers are being recalled over over heating elements.   That’s not good.

RECALL LINK

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed. It is illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product.

Name of Product: Dishwashers

Units: About 1.7 million in the United States

Manufacturer: Maytag Corp. of Newton, Iowa or Maytag Corp. of Benton Harbor, Mich.

Hazard: An electrical failure in the dishwasher’s heating element can pose a serious fire hazard.

Incidents/Injuries: Maytag has received 12 reports of dishwasher heating element failures that resulted in fires and dishwasher damage, including one report of extensive kitchen damage from a fire. No injuries have been reported.

Description: The recall includes Maytag®, Amana®, Jenn-Air®, Admiral®, Magic Chef®, Performa by Maytag® and Crosley® brand dishwashers with plastic tubs and certain serial numbers. The affected dishwashers were manufactured with black, bisque, white, silver and stainless steel front panels. The brand name is printed on the front of the dishwasher. The model and serial numbers are printed on a label located inside the plastic tub on a tag near the left side of the door opening. Serial numbers will start or end with one of the following sequences.

Sold at: Department and appliance stores and by homebuilders nationwide from February 2006 through April 2010 for between $250 and $900.

Manufactured in: United States

Remedy: Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled dishwashers, disconnect the electric supply by shutting off the fuse or circuit breaker controlling it, inform all users of the dishwasher about the risk of fire and contact Maytag to verify if their dishwasher is included in the recall. If the dishwasher is included in the recall, consumers can either schedule a free in-home repair or receive a rebate following the purchase of certain new Maytag brand stainless-steel tub dishwashers. The rebate is $150 if the consumer purchases new dishwasher models MDB7759, MDB7609 or MDBH979; or $250 if the consumer purchases new dishwasher models MDB8959, MDB8859, MDB7809 or MDB7709. Consumers should not return the recalled dishwashers to the retailer where purchased as retailers are not prepared to take the units back.

Consumer Contact: For additional information, contact Maytag at (800) 544-5513 anytime, or visit the firm’s website at www.repair.maytag.com

CPSC is still interested in receiving incident or injury reports that are either directly related to this product recall or involve a different hazard with the same product. Please tell us about it by visiting https://www.cpsc.gov/cgibin/incident.aspx

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of serious injury or death from thousands of types of consumer products under the agency’s jurisdiction. The CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical, or mechanical hazard. The CPSC’s work to ensure the safety of consumer products – such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters, and household chemicals – contributed significantly to the decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 30 years.

To report a dangerous product or a product-related injury, call CPSC’s Hotline at (800) 638-2772 or CPSC’s teletypewriter at (301) 595-7054.

Shawn and Lily are very busy people.    Bugaboo’s House of Pets has been open just a little more than a year and they keep adding and growing their locally owned business.

They carry a full line of pet food along with the widest selection of Birds in Cornwall.   They specialize in small animal care products as well.

Their human grade pet bakery has been a big hit for them.  Lily can barely keep the shelves stocked, many with recipes she’s created that can only be purchased at the Downtown Cornwall Ontario shop at 101 Pitt street on the Corner of 1st right next to Cornwall Square.

And now they’ve added The Grooming Corner.  If your pooch needs a nail clipping or basic groom they can help you.  Contact the store for more information.   They’re open seven days a week for your convenience, and offer free delivery within city limits on orders over $50 ($25 for Seniors).

Check out Bugaboo’s House of Pets today and let them know that you read about them on The Cornwall Free News!

It’s sexy.   Not sure if it’ll work, but it’s exciting; especially as the editor of an online newspaper.  We already have a lot of you who read our paper on your Blackberry or iPhone.   This exciting development could lead to smaller eye glass and contact lens bills for many of us.

The iPad has a 9.7 inch screen.  It looks like a bigger version of an iPhone, but does more.  Could it be the solution to those of us who need or want small, but still want function?   So far the stock market thinks so as Apple’s price jumped today.

My concern is Apple’s quest to make their dollars on content.  There are a lot of people that want the consumer to pay more for web content.    Right now, if you’re reading this it’s not costing you anything other than your internet usage cost which can be as little as free if you’re at a library or wi-fi spot or as much as some companies can get away with.

Many companies like Rupert Murdoch’s Fox want to monetize content not happy with simply charging for advertising.

It should be interesting to see if this device is a tool in ending the virtual freedom of the internet or just another hot item that doesn’t quite work like it should….

What do you think?  Will you run out to buy one of these babies?  Post your comment below.
