What Is Being Recalled?

PQL, Inc., of Simi Valley, California, has recalled about 186,520 High Bay Linear LED light fixtures because retaining pins inside some units can degrade, allowing the LED board to come loose inside the fixture and creating a fire hazard. The recall was announced on February 26, 2026 in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) under recall number 26-278.

The recall covers rectangular, white, metal High Bay Linear LED light fixtures sold in 2-foot-wide and 4-foot-wide configurations. The fixtures were imported by PQL and manufactured by Jiangsu Ever-Tie Lighting Co., Ltd. Owners should stop using the recalled fixtures immediately and register for free replacement retaining pins.

Why Are the Fixtures Being Recalled?

According to the CPSC recall notice, the plastic retaining pins used to secure the LED board inside some High Bay Linear LED fixtures can degrade over time. When that happens, the LED board can come loose inside the fixture, where the LED strip may contact the lens or other surrounding materials and create a fire hazard. PQL has received one report of a recalled light fixture catching fire. No injuries have been reported.

High bay fixtures are typically mounted high overhead in warehouses, workshops, garages, and other commercial or large residential spaces, where they often run for long stretches and are not easy to inspect up close. The CPSC and PQL are urging owners to stop using affected fixtures right away rather than waiting for a problem to appear.

Which Units Are Affected?

The recall involves rectangular, white, metal High Bay Linear LED light fixtures, sold in 2-foot and 4-foot configurations. The part number is printed on the back of each unit. PQL's official recall notice lists the following affected part numbers:

55202, 55203, 55208, 55209, 55209-WC, 55213, 55214, 55215, 55222, 55223, 55225, 55226, 55227, 55228, 55230, 55231, 55232, 55360, 55361, 55362, 55363, 55364, 55365, 55366, 55367, 55477, 55478, 55480, 55481, 55482, 55483, 55484, 55485, 55487, 55491, 55492, 55504, 55505, 55506, 55507, 55508, 55510, 55511, 55512, 55514, 55515, 55518, 55521, 55534, 55535, 55536, 55537, 55538, 55539, 55710, 55711, 55712, 55713, 55714, 55715, 55716, 55717, 55720, and 55722.

The recalled fixtures were sold nationwide from January 2016 through June 2025 for between $50 and $350. To confirm whether your fixture is included, check the part number on the back of the unit against the list above, or look it up on the official PQL recall page.

What Is the Remedy?

Owners of a recalled fixture should immediately stop using or selling it, quarantine any affected units, and register for the free remedy. PQL says it will replace the degrading plastic retaining pins with durable metal pins — or provide another appropriate remedy — at no cost. To start the process, register your product on the official PQL recall page.

The official registration form asks for your contact information and, if you received a recall letter, the Reference ID printed on it (there is a "No Reference ID Received" option for those who did not). It also asks for purchase details and lets you upload supporting documents — invoices, sales orders, shipping documents, or photos of the fixture or its product label on the back. Those documents are described as helpful for confirming eligibility but are not required to submit the form, and no receipt is mandatory. After you submit, a PQL representative reviews the request and follows up to coordinate next steps.
