Recalled equipment: what Michigan requires
The requirement
A center shall not use equipment, toys, materials, and furnishings recalled or identified by the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission as being hazardous.
What kind of duty this is
A standing prohibition. Your state says you may not have recalled items on the premises. It does not require you to run a check on a schedule, and there is no state form.
Your state prescribes no recall form. Anything we generate for you is a convenience record for your own files — it is not a state form, and we will not pretend otherwise.

Worth knowing
A prohibition PLUS a posting duty: the CURRENT list of unsafe children’s products must be conspicuously posted in the centre, as hard copy or as electronic access to the CPSC list. “Current” implies keeping the posted list up to date, but the rule specifies no interval and requires no documentation or certification. There is no state recall form; the inspection checklist simply reproduces the rule as compliant/non-compliant line items.
