A voluntary recall was issued on about 10,000 Viking four-slice toasters due to a shock hazard. There have been five reports by consumers who experienced a minor shock after touching the outside of the toaster. The company says that all consumers should stop using the unit immediately, unplug it, and contact Viking to obtain a replacement toaster.

The units in question were sold from April 2005 through November 2008 for about $300. For information on the recall as well, as model numbers in question, please see the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission website at http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml09/09081.html
