New York, NY—The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has voluntarily recalled COby 32-inch flat screen televisions for fire and burn hazards posed to consumers.

The televisions were recalled after discovering that an electrical component can fail and catch fire. This can ignite nearby items and pose and burn and fire hazard to consumers.

“This recall involves black Coby 32-inch flat screen televisions with model number TFTV3229 and serial numbers beginning with LG and that have M07 or M10 in the 9th, 10th and 11th position of the serial number. The model and serial numbers are printed on a label on the back of the televisions and Coby is printed on the front. Coby USA is out of business,” the CPSC reported.

Consumers are advised to contact the participating retailer where their television was purchased for instructions on the remedy available from that retailer, which could be a refund, store credit, gift card or replacement TV, the CPSC advised.

Since Coby is no longer in business, consumers can contact one of the following retailers for more information:
