The Story of RecallChek

Since 1974, American citizens have been protected from dangerous items in their homes by federal law. Congress prescribed a system whereby if a manufacturer designed a dangerous product, they MUST recall all those items and FIX THEM FOR FREE!

The problem in the law is that most often it's up to the consumer, to find out whether appliances are potential fire or safety hazards!

There is a database designed and managed by the government, but you would have to wade through 195 MILLION recalled items to find out if a dishwasher or air conditioner is a hazard to your clients family.

The Recall Process

Step 1

Your Home Inspector takes down make and model information during the course of the inspection of kitchen appliances, heating and air conditioning systems, and water heaters.

RecallChek will then hand-check the report, to eliminate wrong numbers from worn plates and ID cards, and other problems.

Step 5

In the event of a potential recall, RecallChek issues a report including the following:


  1. The nature of the recall.
  2. Where the product was sold.
  3. How to remedy the defect.
  4. How to get the item repaired or replaced, in most cases, absolutely FREE!
