What to do if you own this product
What is the hazard with Window opening control devices sold as kits or installed on 100 Series casement windows?
Window opening control devices sold as kits or installed on 100 Series casement windows was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. The window opening control devices can break or detach after accidental or other impact, allowing the window to be opened, posing fall and serious injury hazards. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should leave the recalled windows with the opening control devices in the closed and locked position and immediately contact Andersen Windows to schedule a free in-home repair by an authorized technician. Consumers should submit a request for the repair to: www.andersenwindows.com/100seriescasementwocdrecall. Sold at: Independent window distributors and online at parts.andersenwindows.com from October 2015 through December 2025 for between $9 (individual kit) and $220 (factory installed on 100 series casement window).. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.

About About 91,000 (In addition, about 180 were sold in Canada) units of Window opening control devices sold as kits or installed on 100 Series casement windows are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
