- I just received a recall notice from BRK Electronics (Aurora, IL) that
- made/supplied the 2 smoke detectors in my house. The recall is not for
- battery-operated ones, just for those connected to the house wiring.
- They list some serial numbers and ask that if the ones on my house are one
- of these, I should send in the enclosed card and they will send in new
- ones, free. I am then expected to return the recalled detectors to them.
-
- I will be opening up my detectors today to check if they were made by BRK.
-
- 1. Did any one else get these? I guess this applies to anyone in the
- country who was supplied detectors by BRK.
- 2. Did you ask for an get the new ones?
- 3. Is this another new-fangled scam?
-
- Thanks.
