Acer Recalls Desktop Computers due to Risk of Overheating
About 215 Acer Predator Desktop Computers are being recalled because the insulation on the computer's internal wiring can become bent or stripped, causing the wires to overheat while the product is in use. This poses a burn hazard to consumers.
To-date, Acer has received 2 reports of computers short circuiting, resulting in melted internal components and external casing. Neither incident occurred in the U.S.
The high-end gaming machines have model numbers ASG7200 and ASG7700. Model numbers are printed on the bottom right corner of the panel on the right side of the system.
The Acer Predator desktop computers were sold at computer and electronic stores nationwide from May 2008 through December 2008 for between $2,000 and $6,000.
