(NEXSTAR) — Igloo is expanding a February recall of over 1 million of its 90-quart Flip & Tow Rolling Coolers after the company says it has since received reports of 78 fingertip injuries, 26 fingertip amputations, bone fractures and slashes.
Now, the company is recalling an additional 130,000 coolers in the U.S. over the same issue. According to the recall expansion, the cooler’s tow handle can pinch user fingertips, posing hazards of tip amputation and/or cuts. Customers are advised to stop using the coolers immediately.

| 34790 | Maxcold Latitude 90-quart roller | 10/2021-02/2023 |
The recall only involves cooler models manufactured before January 2024.
