The people like us who goes to a tech site knows about this problems. Samsung may had called them or email those unlucky buyers, but those buyers might not even open their email or didn't answer the phone because it isn't in their contacts.
But, I don't think the Note7 was rushed. It had released about the same time as the Note5.

You buy a Note 7 and you're not a geek?
What do you use your note 7 for if not for texting, mailing and browsing?
You do know it's a smartphone and not meant to be eaten right?!

Harvey, 17 Sep 2016Who would be dumb enough to actually use the phone even tho... moreNo, Samsung is stupid. They rushed to release a product without proper testing so that they can earn some extra money. And not everyone is tech geek like us so I wouldn't be surprise to see if some people is still unheard of Samsung note 7 blowing up. It's samesung's responsibility. Every person who was harmed by this low class faulty product from Samsung should sue too. Shame on Samsung. They could have taken better steps like engaging American Safety commission earlier so they recall process could be would be smoother. But they provide confusing message to that their brand image wouldn't get much worse.

Well, too bad. It's karma. Now samsung is suffering from brand image more than any other company. Samsung's blind fanboys should be ashamed as well.

He has to argue that despite ignoring the recall by Samsung telling them the risks and telling them to hand it in, he should be compensated because it wasn't 'official' by the cpsc at the time.
It may work, but it might not.

Not a fanboy but this a$$hole desrves it. Stop using the phone after recall. Whoever gets injured because of exploding NUKE 7 after this recall deserve it.

I believe more than half of "explosions" were made on purpose just to squeeze Samsung. Samsung please hire the best lawyers and show stupid Americans they started the game with wrong opponent.
The Samsung reaction on faulty batteries may go for a model to all producers.
