This company can help consumers safely drain the leftover juice from the machine’s current battery and get a replacement. This recall of over 150,000 Bissell vacuum cleaners comes after several of their batteries started going up in flames. Some people were injured as a result, sustaining skin burns or damages to their personal property.
Getting a replacement vacuum cleaner is relatively simple
Affected customers who want safely functioning machines to substitute their defective ones won’t have to jump through too many hoops to make this happen. Getting the process started is as simple as visiting Bissell’s website and inputting the requested information into the online form.
In the meantime, consumers need to tread carefully. CSPC remains adamant that under no circumstances should anyone toss their faulty batteries in the garbage or recycling bins. This poses a safety concern and can lead to fires not only starting, but also quickly spreading and spiraling out of control.
Appropriate battery disposal will vary depending on each consumer’s city and state ordinances. However, Bissell is adamant that people should hold off on battery disposal until their replacements arrive.
