I purchased the TetraFauna Aquatic Reptile Heater on 09/02/2011 and today it started smoking, almost started a fire and nearly killed my turtle. The item needs to be recalled for safety issues and TertraFauna is not taking the issue seriously.

Air exchanger unit was not functioning properly. Upon closer inspection I found the blower motor was energized but not spinning. The motor was extremely hot, to hot to hold even with leather gloves on. A bearing failure in the motor caused it to stop spinning.

I have a 3 year old Greenspeed Infinity system model #25VNA0 that completely stopped working on August 6 due to an inverter board failure. After two authorized Carrier service technician visits, the heat pump unit was diagnosed with a failed inverter board, after initially showing a code 95 on the unit. A code 95 indicates that there is high current above 257 volts ac being detected within the board. This same inverter board has been subject to a consumer product safety recall (https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2017/carrier-and-bryant-recall-heat-pumps) of which absolutely no notice was formally sent to us that our unit posed a fire safety hazard. The recall states the following hazard exists "The capacitors in the fuse boards in the heat pumps can stop working causing the unit to overheat, posing a fire hazard." Our service technician is having difficulty sourcing a new inverter board and contacts to Carrier directly have placed blame on distributors and not Carrier corporate for the issues in trying to source a known recall replacement product.

I purchased a convection space heater at Home Depot, manufactured by Holmes Products, a brand of Sunbeam Corp doing business as Jarden Consumer Solutions, on March 5, 2015. It is model HLH4422M. When turning the heater on for the first time, it emitted a noxious, choking odor that also burned the eyes. I placed it outdoors and ran it on a high setting for two hours. The odor subsided significantly after this first operation, but it remains to an extent that causes coughing and airway irritation. I am not overly sensitive to allergens or other environment conditions, and my workmates in the office also complained about the noxious fumes. I use the heater sporadically, once every few month, and hoped that it would eventually “burn off” the irritant. However, after a year and a half the noxious fumes continue. After using it a week ago at a low heat setting, my throat became raw and my sinuses were irritated. I decided that this product will never “clean up” and presents a consumer health danger. I tried to return it to the place of purchase, Home Depot, but the 90 day return period expired and Home Depot said that the issue must be pursued directly to manufacturer, Holmes Products. The manufacturer web page does not readily give contact information, I am still trying to make contact. However, I feel that the CPSC should be notified of the health hazard.

Fire occurred at an apartment equipped with aGE Zoneline® packaged-terminal air conditioner and packaged­ terminal heat ("PTAC") unit. It is believed that this unit failed, causing a fire within the structure. Model: AZ41ElSDABMl, Serial#: DZ37595.

I own a Holmes oil filled 1500 watt heater that today when operating sprayed boiling hot oil out of what is an obvious defect in the product. I found the recall on your website (https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2015/sunbeam-recalls-holmes-oil-filled-heaters) and attempted to fill out Holmes online form and it was not functional. I then called them and they wanted to replace it with a tiny junk humidifier or tiny junk fan, neither of which I'm interested in. They claim the 'date code' on my cord does not match their warranty - although the issue, the model number and the photos on the recall page are all identical. I'd like you to force them to expand their recall of this product and refund or replace with similar value another product that is of interest. It has ruined the carpet in my home office as well as a desk cabinet and some of it's contents.

I have a space heater that the tilt safety device is made of plastic. well it got hot and melted and was no longer operational. if the heater was to have fallen over it would have continued to run. No damage was caused no injuries...
