Shop Pro RV & Marine Antifreeze bottles, manufactured by Prestone Products Corporation, are being recalled by the company.
Recalled products are those with blue fluid in one-gallon, clear bottles, and with date code FT21281 found below the back label.
Bottles filled with pink liquid are properly labeled and can be used.
“The improperly filled bottles contain methanol, which vapors are harmful and may be fatal or cause blindness if swallowed. Also, the directions on the bottle for properly flushing a potable water system may not adequately remove the methanol, presenting a risk of inhalation and ingestion. The labels on improperly filled bottles do not contain methanol warnings,” Prestone announced.
According to the recall notification, those who have used any mislabeled product in a potable water system must not drink water from the system and immediately call the toll-free number below for further instructions on how to flush the water system properly and for a full refund.
