Diplomat 2 Pacifiers
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Approximately 7,800 "Diplomat Pacifiers" imported by Four Seasons General Merchandise are being recalled due to safety hazards. The pacifiers, sold in two-packs with one blue and one pink pacifier, have ring-type handles and "Latex Pur" embossed on the nipple. They were distributed to stores in central and western United States between January and September 1993 and sold for 99 cents per package. The pacifiers fail to meet safety regulations because the pacifier shields lack required ventilation holes that prevent suffocation, and the packaging did not include the required warning statement "Warning - Do Not Tie Pacifier Around Child's Neck."
According to the recall record, consumers should take the pacifiers away from young children immediately and return them to the stores where they were purchased for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact Four Seasons General Merchandise at (213) 582-4444. The record notes that neither the CPSC nor Four Seasons Merchandise is aware of any injuries involving these pacifiers.
