June 27 (UPI) -- Costco is recalling thousands of solar umbrellas sold at its U.S. and Canadian locations, after some of them caught fire, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
The SunVilla 10-foot Solar LED Market Umbrellas use lithium-ion batteries in the solar panels and can overheat, posing fire and burn hazards, the commission said in a release, originally issued Thursday.
