What happened

Velvac, Inc. is recalling certain warning triangle kits sold under the brand names Velvac TO-502 (Part No. 90235) and Torch Industrial TO-205 (Part No. 090235) that were manufactured between December 28, 2012, and April 10, 2014. These warning triangles do not meet federal safety requirements for configuration, stability, color, and durability testing, which means they may not provide adequate stability and reflectivity when used outdoors.
