Week of February 16–22, 2026

The week in recalls

Metal and glass turned up in frozen food, a brake pedal that can come loose, and a surgical device that can push too hard. The recalls that matter most are the ones you can still act on.

Recall CanaryUpdated

Another week, another round of recalls. There were 45 of them, and most were vehicles and medical devices. The ones that matter most are a brake problem in a big van, metal and glass in frozen food, and a surgical device that can build up too much pressure, so let's start there.

Ford is recalling certain Ford Transit vans because the brake pedal can disconnect from the brake booster pushrod. If that happens, the pedal goes to the floor and you lose the brakes, which is why the warning is do not drive. This is a high risk recall, and if you own one of these vans, do not drive it until the fix is done. Call your dealer and ask them to come to you if you can.

Two frozen food recalls are worth your freezer check. Bremer Family Size Italian Style Meatballs may contain metal fragments, and Ajinomoto Fried Rice, Ramen, and Shu Mai may contain glass. Eating either can hurt your mouth or throat. If you have these in your freezer, throw them out or take them back to the store for a refund.

One more for anyone who works in a clinic or had a recent procedure: the Olympus High Flow Insufflation Unit has a software problem that can cause overpressure during surgery. If your facility uses one, stop and check with Olympus about the update. For the rest of this week's recalls, including the Medline Sterile Saline Wound Wash and Convenience Kits and the BMW M5 and 5 Series vehicles, the full list is below.

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
