Consumers are now protected a little more while shopping on Amazon.
US Agency: Amazon Responsible for Hazardous Third Party Products
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission says Amazon is now responsible for any hazardous products sold by a third party.
The online retailer must now plan to make recalls against any hazardous products and encourage customers to trash return them.
More than 400,000 products are now subject to this order, like faulty carbon monoxide detectors and flammable children’s sleepwear.
