CPSC, Lithonia Lighting Announce Recall of Indoor HID Light Fixture Cords

Hazard

The cord of the light fixture can drip plasticizer fluid onto the light fixture, which can degrade the acrylic reflector, causing it to crack and fall. Falling pieces of acrylic can injure a person below the fixture.
