What happened

Blue Coral and the CPSC have announced a recall of three Rain-X® products that contain methyl alcohol (methanol) without child-resistant closures as required by federal law. The recalled products are Rain-X® Super Glass Cleaner Concentrate (sold in 10-oz. and 16.9-oz. blue plastic bottles), Rain-X® Plus Washer Fluid Concentrate (sold in 10-oz. and 16.9-oz. pink plastic bottles and single-use 1.2-oz. pouches), and Rain-X® Washer Fluid Additive (sold in single-use 2-oz. pouches). The Glass Cleaner and Washer Fluid bottles have measuring cups built into the caps and bear a label reading "Blue Coral Slick 50 Ltd." and "Made in USA." Rain-X® Washer Fluid Additive sold in 10-oz. and 16.9-oz. yellow bottles is not affected by this recall.

Methanol is toxic and can cause blindness or death if ingested. According to the recall notice, affected consumers should keep these products out of the reach of young children and call Blue Coral for information on receiving replacement child-resistant caps and a coupon toward a Rain-X® product.
