What happened

Fred & Friends is recalling three styles of Chill Baby pacifiers—the Artiste, Volume, and Panic models—because they fail to meet federal safety standards. The Artiste pacifier's plastic beard and the Volume pacifier's knob can detach, creating a choking hazard for infants. Additionally, the ventilation holes on both the Volume and Panic pacifier guards are too small. The pacifiers are plastic and silicone rubber, measuring approximately 2 inches wide and 1½ inches tall. You can identify recalled pacifiers by their UPC codes: Artiste (728987021282), Volume (728987020599), and Panic (728987020605).

Consumers should immediately remove the recalled pacifiers from children and return them to Fred and Friends for a $12 refund. The company is providing a postage-paid envelope for returning the recalled pacifiers.
