A recall was issued on September 28, 2023 for around 6,400 air fryers by Secura, due to the possibility of overheating from a wire connection. This can cause fire and burn injuries to one or more people, and as a result, the manufacturer has asked all consumers to stop using the product immediately. To see if your product is included in the recall, look for the name “Secura” on top of the unit, and the model number and date code on the bottom of each unit. The recall is for air fryers with model numbers SAF-53D (TXG-DT16E), date code 1901 and SAF-53 (TXG-DS16), date codes 1903 and 1904.
Consumers that own one of these air fryers can contact the manufacturer and receive a $45 Amazon gift card or a replacement product as listed on Secura’s website at https://www.thesecura.com/recall/. While this seems like a fair trade, it’s important to understand that there have been 9 reports of these air fryers burning, smoking, and catching on fire. There is great potential for a fire-related injury or death from this item, and those who have harmed by a defective product deserve justice.

Injuries from Electrical Defects with Air Fryers
Though an air fryer is supposed to get hot, there is a point where it can overheat and inflict burn injuries on the user. These appliances can also ignite and smoke or catch fire in the event of electrical malfunctions. House fires can occur in these situations and caused death or catastrophic injuries to many people, including first to fourth degree burns, respiratory failure, and brain damage.
Considering the long-term costs of living with these conditions, it’s essential to go after the manufacturer and obtain compensation for your harm and suffering.
What to Do if You were Injured by a Secura Air Fryer
As the victim of a recalled product accident, it’s vital to protect your right to a lawsuit, which you can accomplish by taking these steps:
- If there are visible injuries and/or property damage, document your evidence right away by taking pictures or video footage.
- Get treatment for your injuries by calling 911 or going to a hospital right away. The longer you put this off, the more difficult it will be to prove that you suffered bodily harm as a direct result of a defective product.
- Report your accident to the manufacturer, but keep the conversation short and simple. Say no when they ask for a recorded statement and turn down any offers to remedy the situation, like a refund or replacement of the product.
- Call us to speak with a class action lawyer, who can advise you of your rights and legal options.
