The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is a government agency that oversees the safety of thousands of consumer products sold in the United States. This includes both domestic goods and imports those produced inside and those produced outside the country, respectively. The agency collects and investigates complaints from consumers about potentially faulty products and works with manufacturers to issue recalls as needed. About 400 recalls are issued each year, where products are returned to the company for replacement, repair, or refund. Consumers can learn about recalls on the CPSC website. In addition, the CPSC recommends that consumers register newly purchased products to receive any recall information as quickly and efficiently aspossible.In 2016, Samsung launched its Galaxy Note7 smartphone and soon began receiving complaints ofexploding batteries.
