Legal Action Taken Against Igloo Products for Safety Issues
Johnson//Becker, PLLC, a well-known national product liability law firm, has recently filed a lawsuit against Igloo Products Corp., the maker of the Igloo Latitude 90 Roller Cooler. This case stems from an incident involving Mr. Gary Lee, who has reported serious injuries attributed to the cooler's design.
Details of the Lawsuit
On behalf of Mr. Lee, the lawsuit claims that Igloo exhibited negligence in their design of the cooler. As alleged, while removing the cooler from his truck, Mr. Lee's fingers were pinched between the handle and the cooler body, resulting in numbness and pain. This incident has drawn significant attention, highlighting the potential risks associated with apparently simple consumer products.
Recall Notification
The lawsuit also references a major recall by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). This recall affects over 1,000,000 units, including the Latitude 90 Roller Cooler, after the CPSC noted numerous reports of injuries—12 of which involved serious fingertip injuries, including amputations and fractures. Such a high incidence of injury has raised questions about the safety and reliability of these products.
