Product Description
This recall involves Wilteexs-branded bottles of bioethanol used for tabletop fire pits, fireplaces, stoves and burners. The 1.06 quarts/1liter clear bottles come pre-filled with fuel. "WILTEEXS," "BIO ETHANOL" and an image of a burning flame are printed in blue and white on the front of the bottles. "X004IQ9ZCH" is printed below the barcode on the back of the bottles. Note: Recalled ethanol should be disposed of in accordance with any local and state regulations, contact your local hazardous waste treatment center or inquire about professional recycling points through the environmental protection agency. Do not dispose of ethanol in sewers, rainwater pipes or ordinary garbage cans to avoid causing fires or environmental pollution.
Hazard
The ethanol fuel bottles violate the federal safety standard for portable fuel containers because they lack flame mitigation devices required by the Portable Fuel Container Safety Act, posing a deadly risk of flash fire. The fuel containers also fail to meet the federal safety regulation for deceptive disclaimers required by the Federal Hazardous Substances Act because they claim the contents are "Non Toxic".
Remedy
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled fuel bottles, place them out of reach of children, and contact Wilteexs for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write "Do not use" and the Amazon order number with permanent marker on the bottle; and submit a photo of it to hongyaodemg@outlook.com.
