Essentially, a recall is a request from a manufacturer to return a product after the discovery of safety issues or defects that might endanger consumers or expose companies to legal risk. And the practice is nothing new. Cars, for example, were being withdrawn from the market as early as 1973 in order for modifications to be carried out. Since then, thousands of different products have been subject to withdrawal and even outright bans.
