Sony recalls 440K laptops
Sony is recalling 440,000 Vaio laptops worldwide because of a potential problem with overheating, the Associated Press says.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission says Sony is recalling 73,000 Vaio TZ-series computers that were sold in the United States because “[i]rregularly positioned wires near the computer’s hinge and/or a dislodged screw inside the hinge can cause a short circuit and overheating.”
The company says it will inspect and repair computers that are covered by today’s announcement.
