Is Your Kyocera Battery Under Recall?

Monday November 1, 2004
Kyocera today announced a voluntary recall of potentially fraudulent batteries in its KE/KX 400 Series, 3200 Series and Slider Series phones - which represents a large amont of phones sold in the U.S. and Canada. Original and replacement batteries for these phones may be counterfeit. There is no charge for this Kyocera recall, which Kyocera qualifies as "proactive" and volunteer. In the past, counterfeit batteries have caused explosions on some Nokia phones. To arrange for a replacement, consumers need to call a special Kyocera recall line at 1-866-559-3882.
