Meanwhile, a lawyer in Philadelphia has filed a class-action lawsuit against Mattel, which last week last week recalled millions of Chinese-made toys, including the "Sarge" jeep from the hit movie "Cars," because the toys' paint may contain high levels of lead.
"We're not going to allow unsafe products to reach American consumers especially when it's lead painted toys reaching our children," said Jeffrey Killino, the Philadelphia attorney who filed the suit.
For details of today's recalls, see:
