Hoover recalls WindTunnel T-Series bagless upright vacuums with cord rewind feature due to fire and shock risks from improperly routed power cords. Affected models sold after Nov 2009 with specific manufacturing codes require immediate stop use and repair.
The power cord is not properly routed or securely seated in the cord rewind assembly allowing the power cord to be pulled loose. This poses fire and shock hazards.
Hoover is recalling certain WindTunnel T-Series bagless upright vacuums with cord rewind features because the power cord can become loose, causing fire or shock hazards. Owners should stop using these vacuums immediately and get a free repair.
The power cord isn't properly secured in the cord rewind assembly, which can cause it to pull loose. This loose cord can lead to electrical fires or shocks if it gets damaged or pulled during normal use.
