Reported risk: The recalled lighters are black with a chrome finished flame guard and a red gas control lever on the top. They are about six inches high and 1 3/8" in diameter and "TAIWAN" is imprinted on the chrome metal bottom. A half-inch metal screw facing back serves as an ignition button. Hazards: The lighters do not have a child-resistant mechanism, as required by federal law. Young children could ignite the lighters, presenting fire and burn hazards.
