The recalled ceiling fans have three or four lights. The fans have four blades and range from 44-inches to 60-inches in blade span.

Background Recall Information
Out of an abundance of caution and in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Health Canada, Hunter is conducting a voluntary recall on the Brunswick ceiling fan model numbers 52262, 52263, 54178, 54179, 54184, 54185 purchased from November 2017 to May 2019.
In rare circumstances the internal wiring in the light kits of the Brunswick ceiling fan models listed below can be damaged during installation. Additionally, if the installer failed to follow Hunter’s installation instructions and did not properly connect the ceiling fan ground wires to the house ground wire, a shock hazard could be present. If the installer properly grounded the ceiling fan and the internal wiring is damaged during installation, the ceiling fan controller will fail in a safe way and there is no risk to the installer or anyone else.
Remedy
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled ceiling fans and contact Hunter to receive a free replacement light kit.
How to determine if your fan is subject to the recall?

- Verify you own one of the affected models. You can find the fan model number on the top of the motor housing, on our owner’s manual cover, and on the product carton.
