Why recalls spiked, and why it matters
California cannabis recalls jumped roughly 800% from 2023 to 2024, and most of the headline cases were vapes pulled for pesticides like chlorfenapyr. The driver wasn't suddenly dirtier products. It was the state moving from education to enforcement, with mandatory lab-testing rules that took effect in 2024.
The takeaway for a shopper is simple. A clean record isn't luck, it's a brand that tests every batch and publishes the results. That's the bar we hold ourselves to, and it's the bar this page lets you hold anyone to.

Where does this recall data come from?
Every recall listed here links to its official notice on the California Department of Cannabis Control (DCC) recall portal at recalls.cannabis.ca.gov. We compile and re-verify the list by hand; the DCC is always the source of truth.
What's the difference between a mandatory and a voluntary recall?
A mandatory recall is ordered by the DCC. A voluntary recall is initiated by the cannabis business itself, often after the DCC flags a problem. Both mean the product should not be used.
Has Halara ever been recalled?
No. As of Jun 21, 2026, a search of the DCC recall portal returns no recall for Halara. Every Halara batch is third-party tested for 101 contaminants before it reaches a shelf.
Is this list complete?
It covers the California vape recalls we've been able to verify on the DCC portal, but the portal has no public export, so we can't guarantee it captures every recall ever issued. If you're checking a specific brand or batch, confirm it directly on the DCC portal.
A brand I use is on this list. What should I do?
Open its DCC notice (linked in the table) to see the affected batches and the recall reason, then stop using any product that matches and contact the dispensary where you bought it.
This tracker is compiled by Halara from publicly available California Department of Cannabis Control recall notices and was last verified on Jun 21, 2026. It may not be exhaustive. For the authoritative, current record, search the DCC recall portal ↗ or the DCC recalls and safety notices page ↗.
