Recall Information Record

Case Number: 00000026819
Product: Ceiling Fan
Brand: Odelic
Hazards: Fall Hazard

WHAT HAPPENED

A recall has been issued for Odelic ceiling fans sold in Japan between May 2011 and October 2012. The Japan Consumer Affairs Agency (CAA) published the notice under management number 00000026819, identifying a critical safety defect: the fixing screw for the ceiling fan shaft was not tightened sufficiently during manufacturing. This defect could cause the fan to detach and fall, posing a serious risk of injury to persons below.

This recall matters because falling ceiling fans can cause severe head trauma or property damage. The affected units were sold over a 17-month period, meaning many households may still have these fans installed. The manufacturer, Odelic Co., Ltd., in coordination with the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and the National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (NITE), has initiated a free part replacement program starting July 15, 2020.

If you own an Odelic ceiling fan purchased between May 2011 and October 2012, take the following steps immediately:

• Check the product label or purchase records to confirm if your fan is within the affected sales period.
• Stop using the fan and do not operate it until it has been inspected.
• Contact Odelic customer service or visit their official website to arrange for a free replacement of the fixing screw and shaft assembly.
• Provide the model number and purchase date when contacting the company to expedite service.
• If you are unsure about the installation, consider having a qualified electrician perform the inspection.
