If the device that caught fire on board in the Galaxy Note 7 Southwest Airlines Incident was confirmed to be a replacement unit, the second recall of Samsung Galaxy Note 7 could take place.

For the record, the investigators looking into the incident are the Federal Aviation Administration or FAA and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission or CPSC."If it's the fixed phone and it started to smoke in his pocket, I'm going to guess there'll be another recall. That just doesn't sound right," Bloomberg reports as former CPSC Executive Director

In point of view, if the Galaxy Note 7 that exploded on a Southwest Airlines plane confirmed to be a replacement unit, then that doesn't only mean that Samsung will have to carry out the second recall for the phablets, but it also means that the new devices handed out after the first recall could catch fire too.
