Switch Malfunction On 67255 Chainsaw.

The switch has failed causing the chainsaw to run constantly. The only way to shut it off is to unplug it. Obviously, this is too dangerous. My review on the internet indicates that this is a common problem with this model 67255. The switch is JIABEN DA7 - 10 / 1. Is there a recall on this product?
