Prime-Line, of Redlands, Calif. has joined with the Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) to recall about 37,000 drawer and cabinet safety latches and wall socket covers sold at retailers across the USA under the brand name, Child Safe. Prime-Line received four separate reports of screws that hold the products in place either loosening or braking off.
Not only are small parts of screws a small part choking hazard, but when broken the product fails to function as a child safety device, allowing small children access to electrical outlets and other potentially hazardous materials. Fortunately no injuries have been reported.

Although this recall is specifically for the Child Safe brand as noted above, now would be a good time to check any installed child safety devices for security.
