IMPORTANT RECALL NOTICE – AWESAFE BIOMETRIC GUN SAFES
Dear Customer:
Awesafe is conducting a recall of all Awesafe biometric gun safes that were sold before December 7, 2022, in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The safes contain a biometric reader that allows unpaired fingerprints to open the safe until a fingerprint is programmed, allowing unauthorized persons, including children, to access hazardous contents, including firearms.
You should immediately stop using the biometric reader included with the recalled gun safes, remove the batteries, and follow the instructions below to receive a free replacement safe.
While you wait for your replacement, only use the key for the recalled safe to store your firearms.
All units sold prior to December 7, 2022 are affected.
Units sold after December 7, 2022 are not affected. Safes without biometric readers are not affected
