What happened

Griptight Safety Soothers in 4-packs with silicone teats are being recalled because the silicone teat can detach from the product with less force than the safety standard allows, creating a suffocation risk. The product does not meet the requirements of European standard EN 1400. The affected soothers have clear silicone teats with white rings and covers, and shields in pink, light blue, or dark blue, sold in blue and yellow trimmed plastic bags marked with the Griptight brand name (product code 66450).

The importer is conducting a voluntary recall of the product. The source document does not specify what remedy consumers should pursue or what steps they should take.
