Well, recently Some Hewlett Packard buyers have found reporting that their laptop batteries have burned and melted. So, the replacement program has been arranged just to prevent owners from fire and burn hazards. The replacement program has been issued for the affected devices that were shipped between December 2015 and December 2017. The company wrote in a blog post “The quality and safety of all HP products is our top priority. We recently learned that batteries provided by one of our suppliers for certain notebook computers and mobile workstations present a potential safety concern” “We are taking immediate action to address this issue including a voluntary recall and replacement of the batteries. This action pertains to 0.1 per cent of the HP systems sold globally over the past two years” According to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, the affected models are:
