What to do if you own this product
What is the hazard with Wilteexs Bioethanol Fuel Bottles?
Wilteexs Bioethanol Fuel Bottles was announced earlier this year, in the "Other" category. The ethanol fuel bottles violate the federal safety standard for portable fuel containers because they lack flame mitigation devices required by the Portable Fuel Container Safety Act, posing a deadly risk of flash fire. The fuel containers also fail to meet the federal safety regulation for deceptive disclaimers required by the Federal Hazardous Substances Act because they claim the contents are "Non Toxic". That is the hazard as reported publicly by the firm and the regulator; it does not necessarily mean every unit has failed.
What should you do if you own this product?
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled fuel bottles, place them out of reach of children, and contact Wilteexs for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to write "Do not use" and the Amazon order number with permanent marker on the bottle; and submit a photo of it to hongyaodemg@outlook.com. Consumers should dispose of the fuel bottles in accordance with local and state regulations. Sold at: Amazon from April 2025 through July 2025 for about $17.. If you bought it somewhere else, the remedy above still applies — contact the firm directly using the official recall page linked below.
How many units are affected?
About About 1,100 units of Wilteexs Bioethanol Fuel Bottles are covered by this recall, according to the official count reported by the firm to the regulator.
