Samsung Recalls Over 2 Million Washing Machines After Reports of Injuries

Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, already struggling from a global recall of its Note 7 smartphones causing the company billions, issued on Friday a recall of about 2.8 million top-load washing machines in the United States. This comes after reports of injuries from several customers.
The top of the washing machines can unexpectedly detach from the chassis during use, posing a risk of injury from impact, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said.
The recall involves 34 models of top-load washing machines made between March 2011 and November 2016 and costing between $450 to $1,500.
