The product, in the report: “Wipe New”
We purchased “Wipe New” product which is located near checkout register. Product advertises for use on interior leather and vinyl for cars. I used a very small amount, as directed, on my [REDACTED] SUV steering wheel. This product is so highly toxic that my husband and I both experienced severe light headedness and extreme dizziness. When I laid down in the evening after using this in my vehicle, the entire room was spinning. I was very confused about what was causing these symptoms but recognized the very strong odor this product left in my car that lingered for at least a month. I even wondered if it was maybe only for use on the exterior of cars so I re-read instructions. Definitely says for use on car interiors. finally 2 months after use the vehicle is smelling normal. Periodically, I am still experiencing dizziness form having this product used in my vehicle. We saved box. It is so toxic, we are keeping the product & box outdoors. Attached are pictures of the product. My husband experienced same symptoms but also felt like he was going to pass out. We have brought this highly toxic product to your attention as we believe it is dangerous to the public. We are both normal, healthy individuals. This product could be lethal.
