ATLANTA — The Home Depot will pay $5.7 million to the U.S. government as a settlement for selling recalled products. From April 2012 to November 2016, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission says the home improvement big box retailer sold recalled products, including motion-activated lights, smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, space heaters and other products. Some of these products, the Commission says, could pose fire, shock, or cutting dangers. Home Depot did not admit guilt in the sale of these products. In addition to paying the penalty, the retailer “agreed to continue a compliance program designed to make sure recalled products are not sold in its stores.”
