IKEA Recalls Ceiling Lights That Have Faulty Retaining Clips

Home furnishing giant IKEA is recalling ceiling light fixtures over fears they could fall and hit people.

The CPSC announced Tuesday that plastic clips holding HYBY and LOCK domed ceiling lights up could break, causing the glass to fall and hit people.

IKEA received reports of 224 incidents worldwide of the clips breaking and the glass domes falling, three of which happened in the U.S. Eleven of incidents where the fixtures fell resulted in injuries, although none of the injuries happened in the U.S.

The fixtures were sold at stores from October 2012 through January 2016. People who bought the lights should stop using them immediately and contact IKEA for a refund.
