Hazard (official). The ethanol fuel bottles violate the federal safety standard for portable fuel containers because they lack flame mitigation devices required by the https://www.cpsc.gov/Business--Manufacturing/Business-Education/Busines… Fuel Container Safety Act, posing a deadly risk of flash fire. The fuel containers also fail to meet the federal safety regulation for deceptive disclaimers required by the https://www.cpsc.gov/Business--Manufacturing/Business-Education/Busines… Hazardous Substances Act because they claim the contents are “Non Toxic”.

Action / remedy (official). Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled fuel bottles, place them out of reach of children, and contact Wilteexs for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write “Do not use” and the Amazon order number with permanent marker on the bottle; and submit a photo of it to hongyaodemg@outlook.com.
