As per CNA:
[quote] The Bureau of Standards, Metrology & Inspection under the MOEA said the 59,000 dehumidifiers that will be subject to the recall were produced between Jan. 1, 1998 and Dec. 31, 2009 by Taipei-based Soonwell Corp. for Sanyo.
Sanyo had already announced a recall of the flawed dehumidifiers in June and offered to replace potentially defective parts at customers' homes.
The bureau said aging capacitors or control circuit boards could be to blame for the dehumidifiers' problems, and it urged the public to stop using the dryers immediately while also asking Sanyo to report the results of its recall.
The models in question are SDH-220B (produced from 2006-2008), SDH-281BC (2000-2005), SDH-601B (1998-2009), SDH-601BC (1999-2003), SDH-801B (2001-2009), SDH-803N (2006-2009) and SDH-816 (2008).
