Urgent Product Safety Complaint – Severe Health Reactions Following Exposure to Yankee Candle Vent Gel Air Freshener

Dear Yankee Candle Customer Care,
I am submitting a formal product safety complaint regarding a Yankee Candle scented vent gel air freshener that was recently used in my home.
Within approximately 12 hours of exposure, multiple occupants of the residence developed significant and alarming symptoms, including severe migraines, intense headaches, nausea, vomiting, extreme fatigue, dizziness, and a general feeling of illness. The symptoms were serious enough to disrupt normal daily activities and caused substantial concern for the health and safety of everyone in the home.
The timing of the exposure and onset of symptoms was striking. After the product was removed and the home was ventilated, symptoms began to improve, leading us to believe that the air freshener was the likely source of the reaction.
I am further concerned that similar complaints involving headaches, migraines, nausea, and fragrance-related reactions have been reported publicly by consumers using highly scented products, including Yankee Candle fragrance products. 
Given the severity of the reaction experienced by multiple individuals, I request:
A full investigation of this incident.
Disclosure of the fragrance ingredients and safety information associated with this product.
Information regarding any similar adverse-event reports received by Yankee Candle.
Reimbursement for the product.
A written response addressing the safety concerns raised in this complaint.
No consumer should reasonably expect a household fragrance product to cause severe migraines, vomiting, fatigue, and other disabling symptoms after only a short period of normal use.
Please confirm receipt of this complaint and advise what steps Yankee Candle intends to take to investigate the matter.
