December 23, 2003

Family Dollar is recalling about 60,000 Durex Procraft outdoor extension cords because of a flaw that could cause electric shock or electrocution.

These are 25-foot Durex Procraft outdoor extension cords. These green cords are sold in blue and black packaging. An Underwriters Laboratories’ label is attached to the cord showing code “E-174825.” The item UPC number is 0 74972 01025 1, and is located on the back of the package in the lower right-hand corner.

The cords were sold at Family Dollar Stores nationwide from June 2003 through November 2003 for $3.

Consumers should return the recalled cords to any Family Dollar Store for a refund.
