nüvi Battery PCB Recall
Garmin is voluntarily recalling certain nüvi devices that
contain a specific battery that was manufactured by the
battery supplier within a limited date code range. Garmin
has identified potential overheating issues when certain
batteries manufactured by the third-party battery supplier
within a limited date code range are used in certain Garmin
nüvi models with a specific printed circuit board (PCB)
design. It appears that the interaction of these factors
can, in rare circumstances, increase the possibility of
overheating, which may lead to a fire hazard. Although there
have been no injuries or significant property damage caused
by this issue, Garmin is taking this action out of an
abundance of caution.
The recalled devices include a small subset of the following
nüvi model numbers:
* nüvi 200W, 250W, & 260W
* nüvi 7xx (where xx is a two-digit number)
You can determine your nüvi model number by looking at the
label on the back or bottom of your nüvi.
