Harbor Freight Tools of Camarillo, CA is recalling about 108,000 of its cordless drills manufactured in China.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reports that the black trigger switch on the 19.2v cordless drill model can overheat, posing a fire and burn hazard to consumers. Harbor Freight says that it has received one report of a drill overheating and burning through the handle of the unit, which resulted in minor burn to a consumer.
The recalled drills were sold at Harbor Freight Tools stores nationwide, and through the company’s website, from April 2008 through May 2012 for between $27 and $30.
