The recall involves 134 models of Kidde fire extinguishers manufactured between January 1, 1973 and August 15, 2017,including models that were previously recalled in March 2009 and February 2015.
Be advised that some of the recalled extinguishers were sold under names other than Kidde (ie Fuller Brush, Honeywell, Montgomery Ward, Sears and other names)
