“The Consumer Products Safety Commission has received more than 600 complaints from residents of 21 states regarding Chinese drywall. At least 12 class action lawsuits involving this material have been filed in 33 states against builders, suppliers and manufacturers. Homeowners have complained that fumes from the Chinese drywall produce a “rotten eggs” odor that permeates their homes, and causes metal, including air conditioning coils and even jewelry, to corrode. Eye irritation, sinus problems and respiratory symptoms have also been reported among people living in homes containing Chinese drywall.”
