      Answered
      The Kidde Manufacturer sent 5 fire extinguishers to replace a defective fire extinguisher. Four of the five fire extinguishers were defective. ******* a manager promised to pick up the four defective fire extinguishers. After 60 hours of phone calls over many months, the company has yet to pick up the four defective fire extinguishers as promised. Attempts were made to recycle, landfill or drop all of the four defective fire extinguishes at a fire department, but none of those mentioned will take the fire extinguishers.

      I've been trying to get 4 of the P4010DCS-W connected alarms to work properly for 5 years now. I've already replaced a couple of them and the replacements are already failing even though they're supposed to last for 10 years. I now have 3 more that have failed over the past few months and I just called their customer service number only to receive a message that the hold time is 80 minutes! These alarms have been very flaky & frustrating and their customer service is obviously overwhelmed trying to deal with the issue. Not good for a product you are trusting to protect you and your family's lives. I can't believe Home Depot still sells these. I'll be taking mine back to Home Depot to see if they will give me a refund or store credit and hopefully if they get enough push back and financial pressure then Kidde will actually do something to fix the problem.
