Tina has the right to sue the company that sold her the product arguing that it had been recalled as potentially dangerous to consumers and she should be compensated for the damages caused by the dryer.

<h3>What should Tina do?</h3>

Tina must seek help from the Federal Trade Commission, this institution is in charge of protecting consumers and promoting competition between companies.

Based on the foregoing, Tina can rely on this institution to sue the company that sold her the dryer because this product had been withdrawn from the market for being dangerous.

So the company that sold him the dryer was committing a crime for selling this object. Additionally, this company must compensate Tina for the damages caused by this product.
