Week of December 29, 2025–January 4, 2026

The week in recalls

A short week of recalls with a serious edge: a small batch of electric SUVs that should not be parked indoors, and organ transplant packs that were never fit for surgery.

Recall Canary’s records start on January 1, 2026, so this first week has only a few recalls dated December 29 to 31.

Here's your weekly look at what got recalled. Nine recalls were listed, mostly medical devices and food, and a few of them matter more than the rest. Two carry a high risk rating, so let's start there.

The one to act on first is the Volvo EX30. In these SUVs the high-voltage battery can short circuit and overheat, which brings a fire risk, and the warning is to park outside, away from your home or garage, until the fix is done. Only a small number of vehicles are involved, but if one is yours, park it in the open and contact your dealer.

The other high risk recall concerns Halyard Organ Recovery OR Pack and Mini Plus Kit South, which are not suitable for organ transplant. If your hospital has these packs, stop using them for that purpose and follow the instructions in the notice. Two more worth a minute: Imprimis NJOF eye injections may contain glass-like particles, which can irritate or damage the eye, and Chips Ahoy! Baked Bites Brookie turned up with hard corn starch lumps, a quality problem rather than a safety one, and that recall has ended.

That is the week in short. The full list below has every notice, with links to the official details, so you can check anything that might be in your home or workplace.

How this list is made

Each recall is filed under the week of one date, a UTC calendar day. Which date depends on the agency; the recall’s own page names it.

FDA
The day FDA first posted the recall to its Enforcement Report (“Posted” on the recall page), or the day the company’s announcement appeared on FDA’s recalls page, if that came first (“Company announced”). When the day FDA posted it is not known, the day FDA classified it (“Classified”); when we listed the recall before any FDA date, the day we first listed it (“Listed on this site”). FDA’s weekly Enforcement Report, and news roundups built from it, often list the same recall a week or two later.
USDA FSIS
The day FSIS announced the recall or public health alert (“Announced”). An expanded recall keeps its first date.
CPSC
The recall date CPSC published (“Announced”).
NHTSA
The day the manufacturer filed its defect report with NHTSA (“Reported”). NHTSA publishes it days to weeks later, so vehicle recalls keep arriving after a week ends, and news coverage often comes a week or two after the week they are listed in.

Biologics are recalls by FDA’s biologics center (CBER), such as blood, tissue and vaccines, and blood bank equipment. They are usually handled by hospitals, clinics, blood banks and doctors’ offices, not bought in stores. Antibody drugs and other therapeutic biologics that FDA regulates as drugs are listed under Drugs, as FDA files them.

Once a week is over, Recall Canary writes a short post about it from the agencies’ records of that week’s listed recalls only, and rewrites it when they change. Each recall’s own page has the agency’s notice and what to check.

A recall the agency later withdrew stays listed with no risk level, and its own page is marked Withdrawn. A recall notice not yet matched to an agency record is a notice posted on the FDA or CPSC site (a company’s announcement on FDA’s site, or a CPSC news release) before it is matched to the agency’s recall record.

Not listed here: recalls by states, local agencies, other countries or other federal agencies (such as the EPA or the U.S. Coast Guard), and FDA safety alerts that are not recalls. More about dates and sources
