the content of the notices or its other actions, notified consumers who purchased certain of the Subject Products that they could present a hazard. Amazon also offered a refund to these consumers in the form of an Amazon gift card credited to their account.

Amazons unilateral actions are insufficient to remediate the hazards posed by
the Subject Products and do not constitute a fully effectuated Section 15 mandatory corrective action ordered by the Commission.

THE CHILDRENS SLEEPWEAR GARMENTS VIOLATE THE FFA BECAUSE
THEY DO NOT MEET FLAMMABILITY REQUIREMENTS
51.
Congress enacted the FF A in 1953 in response to serious injuries and deaths
resulting from burns associated with clothing.
52.
ln the 1970s, the Standards for the Flammability of Childrens Sleepwear
"Standards" were created to address the ignition of childrens sleepwear, such as nightgowns, pajamas, and robes. See 16 C.F.R. Parts 1615 and 1616.
53.
The purpose of the Standards is to reduce the unreasonable risk of burn injuries
and deaths from fire associated with childrens sleepwear garments. Most burn incidents do not occur while children are sleeping but while they are awake, unsupervised, and wearing sleepwear garments. The primary hazard is ignition of the sleepwear by contact with hot surfaces and/or small open-flame ignition sources, such as stove elements, matches, and lighters.
54.
The Standards require that childrens sleepwear garments stop burning when the
flame source is removed. In order to meet the flammability requirements of the Standards, childrens sleepwear garments must not have a sample with an average char length exceeding seven inches and no individual specimen can have a char length of ten inches, as set forth at 16
