Amazon Unveils New Recall and Safety Alerts Page for Customers

Here's How The New System Works

When a product recall or safety alert is issued, Amazon sends personalized emails to affected customers, detailing the specifics of the recall. Additionally, an alert banner appears on the customer's "Your Orders" page. Clicking this banner directs customers to their personalized "Your Recalls and Product Safety Alerts" page. This page provides comprehensive information about potential safety hazards and outlines available options for refunds, returns, or repairs.

Amazon is extending support to its selling partners in the U.S. through the new Recalls Logistics Service (RLS). This service enables selling partners to notify customers about recalls for products purchased via Amazon. Additionally, Amazon can issue refunds and manage return logistics on behalf of the selling partners, further simplifying the recall process.
