TULSA, Okla. — From summertime essentials to beat the heat, to heaters used to keep you warm, there are several everyday items posing a risk of injury under recall.
As the summer months drag on, many look for ways to stay cool. However, be cautious if you own a Rite Aid rechargeable handheld fan.
The fan is being recalled because of a fire hazard. The lithium-ion battery can overheat while charging.

Harbor Freight Tools is recalling One Stop Gardens 15,000 and 30,000 BTU Tank Top Propane Heaters because of a burn hazard.
In windy weather, the flame can redirect toward the bottom of the unit, which can melt the "tip switch" safety shut-off feature.
This poses a risk that the heater won't turn off if it tips over, which could burn the user.
Stop using the heater and contact your local Harbor Freight Tools store for a refund.

Consumers should contact American Outdoor Brands for disposal instructions of the batteries and a free replacement.
