    Made Feb 22, 2012, sent to the company Mar 1, 2012, published by CPSC Mar 15, 2012

    The product, in the report: Franklin Corporation Loveseat - Power Reclining Leather Loveseat Model # FRANK 56322BC27-PWR-CHOC and

    Bought a Power Reclining sofa and loveseat in Sept 2011. Power light on Sofa was shorting out and recliner would not move, when we flipped the sofa over we noticed that the electrical cord has been rubbing against the frame as the recliner moved back and fourth. Cord is now frayed and has EXPOSED WIRES. There are 2 power recliners on the sofa and also on the loveseat. They ALL have the same issue of the cord being rubbed as recliners move back & fourth and is wearing as well. This is a fire hazzard.
