Dell Updates Battery Replacement Program - 300 Bad Batteries On The Loose
Dell is updating its previous battery-replacement program based on additional information that the company has received from lithium-ion battery supplier Sony. It seems that 300 systems contain a battery that needs to be recalled, so you might want to check your laptop again as it might be faulty even though it passed in the past.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced that certain notebook batteries manufactured by Sony have been recalled and Dell is listed among other system manufacturers in that announcement because it received some affected units – fewer than 300 worldwide. According to Sony, the 300 batteries may present a fire and burn hazard. The battery packs were manufactured by Sony on Nov. 9, 2004 and April 11, 2005 and were shipped shortly thereafter with Latitude and Inspiron laptop systems or as service replacements.
