How to Successfully Make a Claim for Johnson and Johnson Recall

While following up on a recall claim can feel like a dead-end road, it doesn’t have to be. With the right steps, you can successfully make a claim for your Johnson and Johnson product. At DoNotPay, we are dedicated to helping you and get the compensation you deserve.

Why are Johnson and Johnson’s Products Being Recalled?

Johnson and Johnson recently entered a voluntary recall for Neutrogena and Aveeno Aerosol sunscreen products due to the presence of Benzene. Benzene is a known carcinogen that can lead to a variety of health conditions for those who use this chemical long-term. Some issues found with Benzene include a decrease in red blood cells, unusual bleeding, and a lowered immune system.

Some recalled Johnson and Johnson’s products have other brand names. These include:

Brand NameProduct
NEUTROGENABeach Defense Sunscreen
NEUTROGENACool Dry Sport Sunscreen
NEUTROGENAInvisible Daily Defense Sunscreen
NEUTROGENAUltra Sheer Sunscreen
AveenoProtect and Refresh Sunscreen

How Do I Know If My Product Was Recalled?

You can determine if your product was recalled and whether you are eligible to make a claim if your product has been listed. Luckily, there are various ways for you to find out whether a product has been recalled.

  • You can go directly to the manufacturer’s website.
  • You can visit Saferproducts.gov
  • You can visit recalls.gov
  • You can use DoNotPay’s Product Recall Monitor

How the DoNotPay Product Recall Monitor works:

  1. Register your email for our Recall Monitor through the Product Recalls product.
  2. Forward any email receipts you have to recalls@donotpay.com (you can set up auto-forwarding to make it easier!)

DoNotPay will notify you immediately if one of your purchases is recalled. We’ll then help you claim a refund or replacement for it!

Making a Johnson and Johnson Recall Claim On Your Own

If you believe there was a recall of your Johnson and Johnson product, you can start by going to their website and filling out a claims form. Johnson and Johnson specifically has a claims form for individuals who were affected by the Neutrogena and Aveeno Aerosol sunscreen products. Here are the steps you will need to take.

  1. Provide the required information, including product name, product size, and the number of items that were purchased. You will also need to provide proof of purchase. You will need to either take a picture or scan a single image of all items purchased to request a refund for four or more products.
  2. In the drop-down menu, be sure to select “Concern or Complaint” as the necessary field for a claim recall.
  3. Submit your form.

Johnson and Johnson state that a representative from their Customer Care department may email you or call you to verify your information or request additional information from you to complete the claims request.
