As each report says it, in short words; CPSC’s own words are under each.

The reports, as CPSC published them

Reports people made to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. CPSC publishes each one after sending it to the company named, and doesn’t guarantee they’re accurate. A report isn’t a recall.

Each report is the words of the person who made it, as CPSC published them. The company’s comments, where CPSC published any, are set apart as the company’s own.

    The product, in the report: Lap Top HP2000

    I have a HP2000 Lap top computer. Last winter my computer actually melted where the power cord plugs into the Lap Top. I have contacted HP to inform them since they are having a recall of power cords for this very reason. They informed me that my cord was not one that was effected. I did have my computer repaired & have the receipt to show this. At this time my Lap top still gets very very hot. My mother has the same exact computer, and hers does the same thing. Also my Lap top plugs into a power source, then into the Lap top. I feel this may need to also be investigated.
