Nokia Charger Recall: Model List Details

Nokia have had to issue a battery charger recall and exchange program, owners will have to check if their charger appears on the list of affected models, which were manufactured by a third-party supplier, and this will be free of charge.

The problem with the battery chargers were found during a routine quality control process. The plastic covers on these third-party chargers could become loose and could then separate from the main body.
