Emergency room Made Jul 26, 2026, sent to the company Jul 29, 2026, published by CPSC Aug 12, 2026
The product, in the report: Heyday 6 ft iridescent fast charging cable usb-c to usb-c
I had a heyday 6 ft iridescent fast charging cable. This morning 08/26/26 at [REDACTED] am I woke up to sparking and the charger cord had started a fire. I got severely shocked and burned on my hand and my arm. I reached to pull the charger out and the metal covering stuck to my hand and made the burn way worse. If I wouldn’t have woke up when I did we would’ve gotten burned alive, because the charger had started a fire a foot away from me.

The product, in the report: Heyday cell phone charger cord for android phone. 6 ft length, Black and white woven cord
The Heyday charger cord was attached to an USB port which was connected to my Android phone. I smelled something burning in the home and notified my daughter who was also in the house. We both continued looking for possible causes and found the cord end that was attached to the phone smoking. I immediately pulled the plug from the outlet and then from my phone.

No one hurt Made Feb 13, 2019, sent to the company Feb 28, 2019, published by CPSC Mar 22, 2019
The product, in the report: Heyday USB C to USB A Braided Cable
On Feb 12th while sitting in the passenger seat of my vehicle, the phone charger I had plugged into my husband’s cell phone started smoking and burning. I immediately pulled the phone charger from the phone and unplugged it from the car, but it had already melted both the charger and the charge port on the phone.
After posting on FB about my experience, other people shared the same thing happened to them with the same brand.
The charger is a Target brand, so I contacted them. On Feb 13th, I was contacted by the guest relations person to whom my case was assigned. She could not tell me that others had the same issue, but she was able to tell me that she had the manufacturers information readily available, which is not typically the case, and inferred it was due to this incident happening multiple times. She also strongly encouraged me to stay vocal and try to get this item taken out of the stores.
Other people told me that it started a small fire on their couch when only plugged into the wall (not into another device), and one that started a fire in a car.
It is the Heyday USB to USB-C charger from Target.
