To make your Kidde recall claim, you will need to have all of your product information handy, as well as photographic evidence of the Kidde smoke alarm for which you are attempting to make a claim for a replacement. However, navigating through the requirements can be tricky, and even one missing piece of information can keep your claim from being successful.
What Products Are Covered Under the Kidde Recall?

Do I Immediately Get a Recall If I Report My Product?
The short answer is no. You can't expect to get a recall immediately upon reporting your smoke alarm. The company will need to determine that you actually own a covered model, and you will be expected to provide sufficient evidence of your ownership before receiving a replacement.
As we've explained above, evidence that you'll be expected to supply includes photos of one of the covered products. Once you 've submitted your claim and evidence, you'll need to wait to hear back from the company, and often getting in touch with them through any other means can be difficult. And should they end up denying your claim, you may feel that you're on your own and without any recourse.
