KIDDE Fire Extinguisher recall

I just found this. They are going to replace my ~20 year old extinguisher for free. If you have one of these you may want to check it before you need it.

Interesting. My model is listed on that page but when I go to the Kidde page it says it's not one of the ones to be worried about.

I would call them and ask. I wasn't sure if mine was because the model wasn't listed, but they said it was. I should get the new one an 10 to 15 days, and they include a return label for the old one to send back. They cover all costs.
