Meguiar's Headlight Sealant recall: Failure to Meet Child Resistant

Meguiar's Recalls Headlight Sealant Due to Failure to Meet Child Resistant Packaging Requirements; Risk of Poisoning

Why was Meguiar's Headlight Sealant recalled?

The recalled headlight sealant contains low-viscosity hydrocarbons which must be in child resistant packaging as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA). The packaging for the products does not meet federal child resistant packaging requirements, posing a risk of poisoning if the contents are swallowed by young children.
