Reminder product is a request to return a product after the discovery of a security or product defect that may harm a consumer or create a manufacturer/seller at risk of taking legal action.
The recall is an attempt to limit the destruction of corporate image and limit the liability for corporate negligence, which can lead to significant legal costs. It can be difficult, if not impossible, to determine how expensive it can be to discharge to a consumer a product that could endanger one's life and economic losses resulting from unwanted publicity. The recall is expensive. The cost includes having to deal with the withdrawn product, replacing it and possibly financially responsible for the consequences of the withdrawn product.
Consumer protection laws of a country will have special requirements relating to product recall. Such regulation may include how much it costs the manufacturer, the situation in which the withdrawal is mandatory (usually because the risk is substantial), or the penalty for failure to remember. Companies may also start withdrawal voluntarily, may be subject to the same rules as if withdrawal is mandatory.

General steps to remember products
In general, the number of recalls has increased - with the exception of the 2009-2010 economic crisis - due to time, cost and market pressure. Per year, global auto insurance is estimated at USD 40 billion, sales losses of 3-5%. Production at low prices often leads to minor quality, and outsourcing leads to a shift in knowledge of techniques and processes. In this way, technical failure is more likely to occur due to communication problems between the various parties involved in the supply chain and the loss of definitions for the technical interface. Although the number of recalls increased, a study by Mojo Motors, Inc. find only 0.005 percent of customers ask about a withdrawal when contacting the dealer. Since 1966, 390 million motor vehicles have been withdrawn in the United States.
Manufacturers must notify the owner when there is a withdrawal notice, but in the case of the second, third or fourth car owner, the company may send a notification to the previous one.

Pet Food Recall
Every year, there are some pet foods and treats recalls because of spoiled or polluted ingredients. Perhaps the best known was in 2007. The shooting of pet food in 2007 involved a massive recall of many cat and dog food brands beginning in March 2007. The recall came in response to reports of kidney failure in pets that consumed most of the wet animal food made with wheat gluten from a Chinese company, began in February 2007. The recall started voluntarily with the Canadian Food Menu Company on March 16, 2007, when a company showed sickness and death in some test animals. Overall, several large companies have attracted 150 different food brands consisting of more than 5,000 separate pet food products. FDA and USDA investigations uncover foods that are deliberately contaminated with chemical melamine.
However, pet food is not rare at all. The 2007 withdrawal stands out and is famous for the size, scope, and number of animals affected. However, pet food recall happens regularly. For example, on September 12, 2008 Mars Petcare USA announced a voluntary recall of all dried animal food products produced at its plant in Everson, Pennsylvania, on the grounds of potential contamination with salmonella.
