What was recalled

The recalled ceiling-mounted light fixtures come in six different models - 5359-01, 5359-02, 5359-15, 5370-15, 5370-98, and 5372-02 - which can only be accurately identified on the packaging or receipts. The white glass lights have an antique brass, polished brass, white, or brushed stainless finish and do not have any exposed screws. The light fixture is twisted into the base and locks in place. Because the light fixtures have no visible label or identifying marks on the outside, consumers are advised to look at the pictures or contact the company for more information.

Hazard

The wiring in the lights can short, posing a fire hazard to consumers.

Injuries

Sea Gull has received two reports of the fixtures shorting out, though there have been no reports of fire or injuries.

Made in

China

Where it was sold

  • Electrical supply dealers and contractors sold and installed the fixtures, from July 2002 through February 2003. These fixtures were not sold at retail stores.
