Kidde recalls more than 200,000 smoke alarms over failure to warn of fire


(CNN) Kidde is voluntarily recalling about 226,000 smoke alarms and combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms over concerns that they can fail to alert users to a fire. The company and the US Consumer Product Safety Commission identified seven affected models on Thursday, advising that customers with those units contact Kidde for a free replacement alarm. The recalled models are: Kidde Model Series 2040, 2050, 2060 and 2070 smoke and combination smoke/carbon monoxide alarms. Many recalled units will have the TruSense logo or "AMBER=FAULT" printed on the front, according to Kidde's website. No injuries or incidents related to the alarms have been reported so far, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission website.
