Not all recalls affect the entire country, but instead perhaps one specific region or even one individual community.
A La Crosse, Wisconsin-based company called Kwik Trip has announced a recall of Glazers Donuts. At issue is the fact that the items in question may contain traces of eggs, an allergen that was not listed on the labeling of the item. Personnel at Kwik Trip discovered this issue when they figured out that the supplier of one of their ingredients had added egg to the mixture.
Thankfully, there have been no illnesses or reactions brought to the attention of the company in conjunction with this recall.
The item comes in a 10.75 ounce cardboard box and has a UPC code of 39779 04033. The donuts have a sell by date of April 7, so they should not be in the stores at this point anyway. They were only available in Iowa, Wisconsin, and Minnesota.
Consumers that suffer from an egg allergy are being advised to discontinue consumption and return the item to the Kwik Trip from which it was purchased.
As a personal injury lawyer in Bakersfield, I’m sorry to see yet another undeclared allergen make its way into a product. Millions of people suffer from allergies, which is why labeling is so important. I am glad to see, though, that this item was recalled before an injury could occur. I wish as a San Bernardino personal injury attorney that all recalls could be preventative instead of reactionary.

103,437 vehicles are being recalled by Daimler Trucks North America due to faults found in Sterling, Freightliner and Western Star Vehicles of the 2006-2013 model years. These vehicles use Detroit Diesel EPA07, EPA10, DD13 and DD15/16 engines.
Made between January 20, 2006 and February 20, 2012, the support system for the pump to rail high pressure fuel line used on these engines has a sensitivity to assembly torque. Thus, service work could damage the part. This would mean that line supports can loosen and break, which in turn causes the fuel line to crack and fuel to leak out of the vehicle. This is a hazard as it could lead to fuel spillage. On the road, a crash risk can present itself, plus an ignition source could cause the leaked fuel to catch fire.
Owners are being notified by the company. They will be given a free fuel line support system replacement where applicable. This will be conducted by approved Daimler maintenance facilities. This should start, if it hasn’t already, in March.
As a personal injury lawyer in Bakersfield, I’m sorry to see a safety defect like this take place. I hope all owners of the vehicle in question heed the warnings of this recall so that the issue can be taken care of before lives are endangered. As a Bakersfield car accident lawyer, I understand how recalls can save lives, but not if consumers don’t take notice.
