Recall Watch: 2026 Camping Gear Recalls So Far

In an emergency, call 911.

Check the gear you own against each CPSC notice below. Every recall applies only to the models, date codes or lot numbers CPSC lists. If yours is included, follow the instructions in that CPSC notice, which in each case below starts with stopping use of the product (the Generac notice lists an exception for some units). If your item isn't listed, this roundup doesn't tell you anything about it either way.

This list covers recalls with CPSC recall dates from January 1 through October 31, 2026, for products campers commonly use. Each entry was confirmed on cpsc.gov. Hazard text is quoted or closely paraphrased from CPSC. Contact details are on each CPSC page; we haven't repeated them here, so use the official notice.
