Charlotte Russe iPhone Chargers Recalled due to Fire Hazard

MiWorld Accessories is recalling their USB Cord & Wall Chargers for the iPhone 5/5S, which were sold exclusively at Charlotte Russe stores. The chargers pose a fire hazard because they can overheat and catch fire while in use. There was one report of the charger catching on fire, but no injuries have been reported.

The recall includes 3,200 chargers for the iPhone 5 and 5s. They were sold at Charlotte Russe stores nationwide in October 2014 for $13. The recalled chargers have a geometric print in mint green or peach colors. Style numbers CRGT-003 or CRGT-004 are printed on the UPC sticker on the back side of the package. “Charlotte Russe” and “USB Cord & Wall Charger for iPhone 5/5S” are printed on the packaging. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled chargers and contact MiWorld for a full refund.
