From Ford Explorers to blinds, here's what was recalled in Canada this week
CTV
Several items were recalled by Canada this week, ranging from vehicles to blinds.
Ford issued a recall for about 93,000 of its Explorer vehicles and Health Canada recalled nearly 2,000 blinds in the country this week.
About 93,000 of the SUVs — from the 2011 to 2019 model years — were recalled because their A-pillar trim clips were not attached properly due to "improper assembly or repair."
As a result, these trim pieces may detach while driving, creating a hazard for other drivers and increasing the risk of a crash.

Health Canada is recalling window coverings made by four different companies over the same issue.
The companies sold blinds that may pose a strangulation hazard, the agency said in a series of recall notices issued Monday and Tuesday. One of the products made by the impacted companies may also present an additional choking hazard.
