The Recall Index

Recalls this week

The ConsumerSun Recall Index counts every new U.S. recall from the CPSC, the FDA (enforcement reports plus same-day company announcements), the NHTSA and the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service. The headline week is the most recent complete week — Oct 26, 2026 – Nov 1, 2026: 213 new recalls, 99% more than the week before. The new week fills in underneath as the agencies publish. The same numbers are open data (JSON).

The index week in numbers

  • 213 new recalls (Oct 26, 2026 – Nov 1, 2026)
  • 4 arrived as same-day FDA announcements, ahead of formal classification
  • 25 classified Class I — the most serious category at both the FDA and the Food Safety and Inspection Service
  • 13,838,191 units reported affected, across the 206 recalls that published a quantity (many notices don't, so treat this as a floor)

By agency

  • FDA: 198
  • CPSC: 12
  • NHTSA: 3

By category

A recall can sit in more than one category, so category counts can add up to more than the week's total.

This week so far

Since Monday, Nov 2, 2026: 0 new recalls — the agencies publish in batches (the FDA's enforcement report lands as one dated batch a week), so this count grows in steps, not a stream. It becomes the headline index when the week closes on Sunday.
